Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has revolutionized structural biology. By enabling the observation of cellular structures in their near-native state at molecular resolution, this groundbreaking technology is reshaping how scientists understand life at the nanoscale. Whether preparing thin lamellae for Cryo-Electron Tomography (Cryo-ET) to obtain the finest structural details or performing Cryogenic volume imaging, Tescan workflows ensure precision, reliability, and sample integrity throughout the entire process.
Preserve Native Biological Structure for Reliable Cryo-ET and Volume Electron Microscopy
Achieving reproducible cryo-ET data starts with precise sample preparation and preserved structural integrity. Tescan solutions deliver cryogenic FIB-SEM workflows that maintain native cell and tissue morphology. This enables confident cryo-lamella preparation, high-resolution surface imaging, and 3D volume reconstruction in life-science research.
TESCAN SOLUTIONS
Enable reproducible results and reveal delicate biological structures for reliable surface morphology studies. Tescan workflows provide detailed, high-contrast imaging of coated, uncoated, and hydrated samples, revealing essential topographical features that drive discovery in the life sciences.
Understanding biological systems requires more than a single plane of imaging—how organelles interact within cells, how cells organize in tissues, or how microbial communities form in ecological niches. Tescan volume electron microscopy (vEM) provides multi-scale, 3D insights into cells, tissues, and small organisms.
