This #SEM has both @OxInst#EDS and #EBSD detectors that can do compositional and crystallographic #analysis of samples. We also have a @Quorum_UK#Cryo-SEM system on this microscope! Here is our #JEOL 6610 and an image of a needle and thread taken on this instrument!
Uni of Leeds, UK, and NTU, Pakistan, looked at fiber damage in textiles after repeated washing cycles. SEM images were taken in a JSM-6610 before and after washing cycles. The specimens were sputter-coated with gold in a Q150RS from @Quorum_UK.

New salesman, Hamed, presenting on behalf of @Quorum_UK at the 2nd Joint Symposium of the Microscopy Society of Ireland and Scottish Microscopy Society in beautiful Galway.
A freeze-fractured tomato leaf specimen where the water is immobilised at different rates. At the higher cooling rate (right image) cellular morphology is maintained. Prep using Quorum PP3010 system https://t.co/U8rssLixZ8 #sampleprep#cryoSEM
Tarhana is a traditional fermented soup from Turkey. MCBU has developed a method for making powdered, gluten-free soup. Powder samples were coated with 8nm gold using a Q150R ES from @Quorum_UK and examined in a Zeiss 300 VP

Sarah will present her talk "Super-resolution microscopy reveals hierarchical organisation of spatially segregated protein nanoclusters within focal adhesions" and write a piece for the @focalplane_jcs website! We can't wait to see you there! https://t.co/I1WIDnlSkv
Stem cells can be used to produce cultured meat for human consumption. This study shows that tissues from FAP cells mimics beef fat in terms of taste. Samples were coated with gold on a SC7620 by @Quorum_UK before imaging in a JSM-IT200 from JEOL.
