Cryo-tomography to Volume EM: Explore with Hydra Bio Plasma-FIB

Volume electron microscopy or volume EM (vEM) was named one of Nature's Technologies to Watch in 2023. The new Thermo Scientific Hydra Bio PFIB integrates advanced cryo-TEM lamella preparation to volume EM workflows.In this episode of Listen In, see how the new Thermo Scientific Hydra Bio Plasma-Focused Ion Beam (PFIB) extends cryo technology to volume EM and enables the acquisition of high-resolution 3D data through automated serial milling and imaging of frozen-hydrated specimens.Cryo Auto Slice & View enables the acquisition of high-resolution 3D data through automated serial milling and imaging for striking new insights into a range of frozen-hydrated specimens prepared by high-pressure freezing or plunge freezing.The choice of four different plasma ion species offers advantages for imaging cryo- and resin-embedded samples. The Hydra Bio also features the Spin Mill Bio Method, an exclusive technique for large-area planar milling that yields similar-sized imaging areas as microtome slicing. Plus, see how Hydra Bio PFIB combines field-proven and new techniques to enable cryo and room temperature applications.Watch the full presentation here: https://events.bitesizebio.com/cryo-tomography-to-volume-em/roomBrowse all episodes of the Listen In Series here: https://listen-in.bitesizebio.com/
