SSRL Loading Guide Tool
For use with SSRL Sample Storage Cassettes. The cassette loading guide tool is used with the magnetic loading and testing wand or the magnetic push button wand to transfer samples into SSRL cassettes. Samples that are pre-cooled may be transferred by using the slot on the side of the loading guide tool, keeping the samples submerged in liquid nitrogen during loading.
Product Information
This SSRL Loading Guide Tool is an essential structural biology accessory specifically engineered to streamline the transfer of cryocooled samples into SSRL (SAM) Sample Storage Cassettes. Designed with an integrated side slot, this precision alignment guide allows users to effectively maneuver pre-cooled samples while keeping them safely submerged in a liquid nitrogen bath, drastically minimizing the risk of premature warming and ice crystal formation. Fully compatible with standard magnetic loading and testing wands as well as push-button variants, the guide ensures that delicate pin-mounted macromolecular crystals are cleanly and securely seated into the cassette ports without mechanical disturbance.
