Ethane-temperature controlled Vitrobot dewar

The Ethane-Temperature Controlled Vitrobot Dewar enables control of the temperature of your liquid ethane for plunge freezing. Cryo-EM practitioners have always relied on very rough control of the ethane temperature during vitrification from empirically derived methods, which has resulted in a lack of consistency in Cryo-EM sample preparation. With this system, sensors and heaters are built into the brass ethane cup such that the temperature of the ethane can be precisely controlled, providing reliability and consistency in one more variable in your Cryo-EM sample preparation process.

The temperature control box also includes a tool warming pad, with a warming plate and air flow to dry your Cryo-tools quicker during vitrification.

Features:

• High quality, robust foam dewar and cryogenically-compatible plastic basin
• Robust construction and easily (dis)assembled dewar components
• Embedded heaters and sensors – accurate control of ethane temperature
• Default optimal temperature "Snowflake Setting"
• “Bake-Out Cycle” to quickly warm up the ethane cup and accelerate drying of the entire dewar assembly
• High quality, OLED screen with knob for easy system operation
• Tool warmer built into the temperature control box for convenient warming and drying of tools
