Description:
The Purdue Cryo-EM Facility provides state-of-the-art instruments (FEI Titan Krios with Gatan K3 direct electron detector, FEI Volta phase plate) and expertise for high resolution structure determination of viruses, larger macromolecular complexes, nano-particles, as well as tomographic visualization of virus-cell interactions by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). The facility staff can provide complete service from sample grid preparation to automated data collection.

Policies:

• Cryo-EM Core Policies

Services Offered:

• High-resolution single particle cryo-EM imaging (viruses; macromolecular complexes; nano-particles)
• High-resolution cryo-electron tomographic imaging (pleomorphic viruses; virus/host interactions; cell sections)
