Electron Microscopy Grids, Mesh, and Films
Electron Microscopy Sciences Carbon Support Film 3-4 nm thick on Square 300 mesh Copper Grid
A thin film of pure carbon. All of our coated grids are optically checked followed by batch testing in the EM. Packed in grid storage box. NOTE: All of our film is laid on the shiny side of the grid. Ultra-thin thickness is 3 to 4 nm.
Grid: Copper
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Holey Carbon Film 4-6 nm thick on 200 mesh Copper Grid
A thin film of carbon with round holes. All of our coated grids are optically checked followed by batch testing in the EM. Packed in grid storage box. NOTE: All of our film is laid on the shiny side of the grid.
Grid: Copper
Thickness: 4-6 nm
Ted Pella Inc Carbon Film only on 200 mesh, Copper, 25/pk
Carbon films with a thickness of 15-25nm with no Formvar used during manufacturing. Completely free of Formvar. Carbon films are thin and highly transparent to electrons. They exhibit very fine grain and minimal interference with specimen structure. Films are ready to use upon receipt. The pure carbon films tend to be more delicate than support films with a Formvar backing and require more delicate handling during specimen preparation.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Lacey Carbon Film with Carbon/Formvar 1 nm / 5 nm thick on 300 mesh Gold Grid
The continuous ultrathin carbon/formvar film on lacey carbon allows for the thinnest support film that still has adequate strength to withstand electron microscope specimen preparation. The carbon 1 nm, formvar 5 nm film lies across a carbon lacey film supported by a mesh grid. The size of the holes in the lacey film differ widely from batch to batch but are generally in the range of ¼ µm to 5µm, which gives the equivalent support of at least 6000 mesh grid.
Specimen material lying over the covered holes can be imaged in the TEM with practically no interference from the carbon film supporting it. This product is ideal for looking at nanotubes, virus particles and other small particulate material.
