Take a gander at how we load a frozen grid with vitrified sample into the Gatan Elsa CryoHolder for our Talos L120C system. One of the toughest training aspects for CryoEM is teaching the fine motor skills to manipulate your sample safely.

Join me with my hands-on work aligning our Talos L120C TEM, ensuring the instrument is ready for some negative stain analysis.
This can be automated, but it is a good sanity check when gauging the quality of your optics.

What’s cooler than being cool? Ice. ❄️🧊
In cryo-EM, vitrified ice preserves hydration and near-native structures so we can image biology at atomic scale. We avoid crystals… but when one appears, it’s a reminder of the clever science we use to get these images.
