EM ICE, EM AFS2 and EM GP2 systems for sample preparation at low temperatures.
Leica Microsystems offers several models for sample preparation under low-temperature conditions. The EM ICE is a unique solution that enables cryofixation of specimens in a fraction of a second, whilst exposing the sample to light of a specific wavelength or an electric current.The EM AFS2 is designed for transferring samples from a cryostat into epoxy resin. Meanwhile, the EM GP2 is a plunger system that enables the fixation of liquids or liquid matrices in the non-crystalline phase, as well as thin samples for cryo-TEM, including biological suspensions and industrial emulsions.
