is equipped with a 300 kV Polara microscope and a 200 kV FEG
system with K2 and DE20 direct electron detectors, and 120 kV
and 100 kV cryo microscopes, as well as sample preparation
equipment for single particles, high pressure freezing,
vitrified sections and freeze substitution.<o:p></o:p></span> <span
