Transmission Electron Microscop, Tecnai G2
The microscope is a TECNAI G2 Spirit Bio TWIN (FEI Company) 120 kV with a Tungsten filament. It is a high contrast, general purpose instrument that is specifically suited for low contrast samples. It enables exploration of the native state of low contrast, beam sensitive biological specimens, or other soft materials like polymers. It has a BioTWIN low-background single-tilt holder and a Gatan 70° cryo transfer holder. There are two digital cameras: a SIS MegaView III (in-column) and a Gatan US 1000P (under the column).
