Description

The Leica EM CPD300 critical point dryer is a convenient tool for drying pollen, tissues, plants, insects, as well as MEMS systems, preparing the material for observation in the electron microscope. The automated, controlled process leads to perfectly reproducible results, ensuring the same quality of the sample from each cycle.

The new filter concept reduces CO2 consumption while reducing the overall process time. This is possible by adjusting the chamber volume to the sample size
