GloQube Plus
Key Features
- Short in-air cycle time
- Second chamber for separating in-air and in-vapour processes
- No cross-contamination between chambers due to post-process flush cycle
- Automatic vapour delivery ensures reliable and reproducible results
- Purge cycles reduce water vapour and oxygen concentrations, ensuring excellent yield of specifically orientated macromolecules
- Adjustable slow vent time to minimize sample disturbance
- Optional fast vent for rapid process times
- Safe handling of reagent
- Three level adjustable height sample stage ensures repeatable results
Details
The GloQube® Plus is a cost-effective, compact and easy to use glow discharge system, designed to fulfil the needs of laboratories with TEM. The primary application of the GloQube® Plus is to modify the surface of TEM grids in a way that it meets requirements for successful imaging of a variety of macromolecules. Integrated into one system, the two chambers enable the user maximum flexibility to choose which sample preparation technique they want to use: glow discharge in-air or in-chemical vapour, without downtime for cleaning or the risk of contamination and loss of samples.
- Hydrophilisation and cleaning of TEM grids carbon support films for better sample spreading
- Improved adhesion and orientation of proteins, nucleic acids and antibodies
- TEM grid preparation for nanoparticle studies
