Hydrophilic or hydrophobic, negative or positive charge.

  • Dual vacuum bell jars to avoid cross contamination
  • Bell jars dedicated for glow discharge with amylamine with injection controlled (chemical flask) for nucleic acids (eg DNA)
  • Short runs (<30s), with quick and easy loading of films or grids
  • Intuitive operation with manual or programmed mode
  • Compact system, delivered with dual stage rotary pump - Edwards  RV3.
  • Real-time display of process parameters (current, vacuum, time)
  • Glow discharge methods: hydrophilic or hydrophobic, negative or positive charge
  • Anti-implosion glass for an easy cleaning and a high secured process
  • Soft venting (air or neutral gas) using quick inlet fitting
  • Plasma current : 0 - 30mA
  • Accurate vacuum control using pirani gauge
  • Applications: Suspensions for deposition such as viruses, liposomes, proteins/peptides, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, bacteria, micro/nano-emulsion
