Abstract

Project Summary This is a supplement request for the purchase of Vitrojet which is a new generation of jet freezing device. It has been shown that it will provide a more uniform and thin embedding ice for preserving single particle samples. In addition, this device has a potential merit of minimizing the specimen deterioration at the water-air interface because no blotting is applied to thin the sample. This instrument will be accessible to all users of our Center.
