Optimized cryo workflows using the vacuum cryo transfer system VCT500
Dr. Julia König
Product Manager EM sample preparation for cryo-workflows
Read BioJulia Koenig studied Biology at Dresden University of Technology. After completing her PhD in 2015, she joined the Electron Microscopy STP at the Francis Crick Institute in London led by Lucy Collinson, working on a wide variety of projects, as well as methods and workflow development. In January 2018, she joined Leica Microsystems as a product manager for EM sample preparation for cryo workflows.

Senior Product Manager EM Specimen Preparation
Read BioDr. Saskia Mimietz-Oekler did her PhD at the Julius-Maximilians-University at Würzburg with a focus on electron microscopy - from sample preparation to investigations using transmission and scanning electron microscopes. After her PhD she joined Leica Microsystems first in sales, before moving to the product manager team for EM sample preparation.
CloseOptimized cryo workflows using the vacuum cryo transfer system VCT500
In this tutorial, you will find:
- How to use the vacuum cryo transfer system
- The advantages of the EM VCT500 and EM VCM for different cryo workflows
- About their flexible integration with different analysis systems
Preparing and observing biological samples under cryogenic conditions enables analysis of their structural building blocks in their native state. The sample must be kept under cryo conditions throughout the entire workflow. The Leica EM VCT500 is an optimized, contamination-protected cryo transfer tool, flexible enough to be integrated into different cryo workflows and analysis systems. In this webinar, Dr. Saskia Mimietz-Oeckler and Dr. Julia König will introduce the vacuum transfer technique and discuss different application examples, from cryo SEM observations all the way through to cryo – FIB Lift-out preparations.
