A NOTE ON OPTIMAL TECHNIQUES OF RAPID COOLING FOR LOW TEMPERATURE PREPARATION OF ELECTRON MICROSCOPY SPECIMENS.
Author(s) : DILLER K. R.
Type of article: Article
Summary
ANALYTICAL PREDICTIONS WERE MADE OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF TEMPERATURE AND COOLING RATE DURING RAPID CHILLING OF BIOLOGICAL SPECIMENS IN PREPARATION FOR ELECTRON MICROSCOPY. THE TEMPERATURE WAS DETERMINED IN A SEMI-INFINITE MEDIUM AS A FUNCTION OF POSITION AND TIME FOR BOTH FREEZING AND VITRIFICATION PROTOCOLS IN RESPONSE TO A STEP-WISE DECREASE IN THE SURFACE TEMPERATURE. THE ANALYSIS SIMULATES THE LIMITING CASE OF RAPID COOLING THAT COULD BE ACHIEVED BY MANIPULATION OF THE SPECIMEN BOUNDARY CONDITIONS.
