Cryo-Electron Microscopy

High resolution structural analysis with cryo-EM

Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is rapidly becoming the method of choice for biochemistry labs around the world, helping accelerate research. With cryo-EM, molecular details can be seen at biologically relevant resolutions, providing insights into protein function and disease mechanisms, and facilitating effective drug design. With cryo-EM, you can gain deeper insights into complex biological processes and pathways. 

 

Our cryo-transmission electron microscopes (cryo-TEMs) are powerful instruments that enable you to unravel life at the molecular level—easier, faster, and more reliably than ever before. Recent advances in instrument designs and automation mean cryo-EM is easier to use and more cost effective.

Cryo-EM Resource Center

Uncover a vast wealth of information in the Cryo-EM Resource Center, including monthly webinars, upcoming events, podcasts, technical eBooks and application notes, and other resources that will help you accelerate your next discovery using cryo-EM.
