Cryo-EM Lab Basic Tool Kit Version 2 - A cryo-EM sample preparation tool kit designed for a research lab that wants to begin preparing their own grid samples, but plan to utilize access to facilities already doing basic cryo-EM with standard equipment (glow discharge system, etc.).

Cryo-EM Lab Advanced Tool Kit Version 2- A cryo-EM sample preparation tool kit for labs that want to be able to do all of the basic grid and sample preparation for cryo-EM in their own lab, on a reduced budget.

Cryo-EM Lab Complete Tool Kit Version 2 - A cryo-EM sample preparation tool kit for larger research labs that want to be able to do all of the basic grid and sample preparation for cryo-EM in their own lab with expanded capabilities.

Cryo-EM Lab Build Your Own Tool Kit - Build your own tool kit by choosing the cryo-EM tools that specifically meet the needs of your lab. Includes the ability to add components not listed in our regular tool kits.
