Chien Grids
for Transmission Electron Microscopy
One-hole Grid by Chien
| 1. |
Used to pick up many individual sections or ribbons and to transfer them onto another grid |
| 2. |
It can also be formvar coated as a receiving grid for examination of a large number
of sections. |
| 3. |
When formvar coated, it will support 2 or even 3 parallel ribbons of serial sections,
with no obscuring grid bars. |
| 4. |
Hole size 50% greater than the largest slot grid. |
| 5. |
There are two slits in the rim area which allow it to be easily bent with forceps
to make a tab, while keeping the remainder of the grid surface flat prior to picking
up ribbons. |
