| | | | | | | | Automated Biological Specimen Prep - NOW WITH THERMAL CONTROL
Microscopy Innovations introduces the ASP™-2000, building on the features and benefits of the ASP-1000 with the ability to automate the heating and cooling of reagents for even higher quality electron microscopy results. Thermal control features include: - Independent heating and cooling of 2 reagent plate positions.
- Temperature control from 0-100°C.
- Temperatures can be automated within ASP protocols or manually set from a separate dashboard.
- Continuous reagent plate temperature readouts.
- Anodized aluminum base and two covers for each thermal unit provide thermal mass to maintain steady temperatures.
| | | | | | Automatic Specimen Processing for vEM in a Mouse Model of Breast Cancer (Stempinski, E.S. et al., Microscopy & Microanalysis Meeting 2022) This poster by researchers at OHSU compares the contrast of sections of a mouse breast tumor across manual processing, automated ASP processing, and automated ASP-2000 using ethanolic UA sample prep methods for volume EM. The ASP decreased time for this intensive protocol from 2.5 days to 5 hours.
| A Versatile Enhanced Freeze-Substitution Protocol for Volume Electron Microscopy (Bélanger, S. et al. Front. Cell Dev. Biol. 2022) This publication details an approach combining the benefits of cryo-preservation with enhanced contrast for volume EM in hard-to-fix and diverse organisms and tissue types, including plant tissues, nematode, and yeast.
