LEICA EM CPD300 THE NEW FILLER CONCEPT – REDUCED CO 2 CONSUMPTION AND PROCESS TIME The New Leica Filler Concept – Reduced CO2 Consumption and Process Time Sample container with sample holder and filler The Leica Filler Concept was developed to meet customer demands to reduce CO2 con sumption and process time. With the ability to adjust the chamber volume to the sample size, the exchange volume is reduced, thus minimizing process time and CO2 consumption. Sample holder Filler/holder setting can be programmed to reduce CO 2 consumption and process t

LEICA EM CPD300 THE AUTOMATED LEICA SEM WORKFLOW The Automated Leica SEM Workflow Leica Microsystems offers a complete preparation package for SEM workflow. The Leica EM TP is the ideal instrument for tissue processing. After dehydration of the samples with the EM TP, the TP sample basket stem fits directly to the CPD300 TP stem holder without unloading the samples from the TP baskets. Only one user interaction is necessary to facilitate the workflow for dehydration and critical point drying. Leica Microsystems provides a full range of high quality coating systems as a follow-on procedure...
