PELCO® EM Microwave Vacuum Chamber

microwave vacuum chamber, for microscopy sample preparation
chemical infiltration with reduced fixation times

 PELCO EM Microwave Vacuum Chamber

See Table 1 The effect of Microwaves/Vacuum on the Sample Processing Times for Electron Microscopy

Features

  • Made of chemically resistant microwave transparent materials and designed for vacuum down to 1 torr (1mm Hg).

  • Provided with a vacuum port for the temperature probe.

  • Able to run a continuous vacuum during microwave processing.

  • Improves ultrastructural preservation during microwave-assisted chemical fixation. Reduced fixation time by 95% when compared to conventional protocols.

  • Reduces resin infiltration times by 99% compared to conventional processing and 85% when compared to established microwave protocols.
