Designed for rapid, stable, high-resolution data collection of frozen-hydrated samples.
The Talos Arctica is equipped with:
Electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) single particle and electron cryo-tomography (cryo-ET) data can be collected automatically with the Thermo Fisher Scientific Falcon lll detector using EPU and TOMO software packages.
Electron diffraction data can be collected with the Thermo Fisher Scientific CETA-D detector in a continuous mode using EPU-D software package.
