== Leica EM AFS2 and EM FSP | == Leica EM AFS2 and EM FSP == | ||
The Leica EM AFS2 performs freeze substitution and progressive lowering of temperature (PLT) techniques and allows low temperature embedding and polymerization of resins. The Leica EM FSP (freeze substitution processor), an automatic reagent handling system combined with the Leica EM AFS2, dispenses reagents for both freeze substitution and PLT applications. The LED illumination from within the chamber and the attached stereomicroscope for viewing and positioning of samples ensures ease of use. | The Leica EM AFS2 performs freeze substitution and progressive lowering of temperature (PLT) techniques and allows low temperature embedding and polymerization of resins.

The Ultramicrotome Leica EM UC7 provides easy sample preparation of ultrathin sections for TEM, SEM, AFM and LM application. It is suitable for highly skilled or absolute beginners. The Leica ultramicrotome can provide ultra thin sectioning of sample embedded in a resin/epoxy block with a feed range of 1 nm up to 15 µm. Glass or diamond knife can be used for the ultra sectioning of the samples. | The Ultramicrotome Leica EM UC7 provides easy sample preparation of ultrathin sections for TEM, SEM, AFM and LM application.
