Supplier:  Thermo Scientific™ A51363

Catalog No. PIA51363

Description

• The VitroEase™ Cryo-EM Training Kit has been designed to provide the necessary components to get started with cryo-EM analysis of protein samples
• Sample preparation is a major bottleneck in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) single particle analysis (SPA)
• Currently, sample optimization is often performed in a non-systematic way, extending optimization time over multiple days or even weeks
• Kit includes a positive control protein, apoferritin, that has been designed specifically to meet the stringent needs for high protein purity, minimal protein aggregation, and intact protein structure
• Commonly used accessories for grid preparation are also included such as tweezers for manipulation, grids, and grid boxes for storage
• Detailed step-by-step instructions guide the user through the lengthy vitrification process
• Together the control and components may be used as a comparison for success for new users or for quality control for expert users
• Grids and accessories are provided by trusted sources
