ThO Zeiss

This electron microscope com-bines high resolving power with

unsurpassed operating simplicity.Preparatory and operating stepshave been greatly automated, al-

lowing you to devote full attention

to the research problem at hand.

With minimum instruction, labora-tory technicians can produce out-

standing results.

0

RESOLUTION of 10-12A is obtainable.

DIRECT MAGNIFICATION ranges from.1,500x to 40,000x in four fixed and cali-brated steps, or continuously. Additionalpole pieces for lower magnifications alsoare available.

FAST BEAM ALIGNMENT: The beam is

aligned electromagnetically rather thanby tilting or displacing the gun.

UNIQUE BRIGHTNESS CONTROL: Ex-

clusive with Zeiss. The electron beamoscillates at 90 KC across the diaphragmopening. Image brightness is adjusted bychanging the amplitude of oscillation,not the beam current.

LOW CONTAMINATION RATE: Due toexclusive design features specimen con-

tamination is unusually low.

CHANGING APERTURES is donequickly and easily, without breakingvacuum. Three objective apertures are

available inside the column.

ELECTROSTATIC STIGMATOR is

newly designed for unusually easy com-pensation of astigmatism

FOCUSING is continuous, with numeri-cal read-out indicator.

SELECTED AREA DIFFRACTION:Specimen areas of 1-2,u diameter can beselected for examination.

CONVENIENT OBSERVATION: Forgroups, a 41/2-inch diameter fluorescentscreen observable through three largewindows; for individuals, a lOx binocu-lar of exceptionally high light transmit-tance equipped with special eyepiecesfor eyeglass wearers.

FULLY AUTOMATIC PHOTOGRAPHY:At the touch of a single lever the auto-matic sheet film camera produces prop-erly exposed, sequentially numbered23/4 x 23/4 inch micrographs. Film trans-port is automatic, thus double exposureis impossible.

STEREO MICROGRAPHY: Specimenmay be tilted for 60 or 120 angle of con-vergence without breaking vacuum.

FOOLPROOF VACUUM SYSTEM:Automatic device, controlled by four in-

terlocked pushbuttons, prevents opera-tion of the filament and high voltage be-fore sufficient vacuum is reached.

FAST SPECIMEN CHANGE: Whenchanging specimens, image-to-imageelapsed time is about 40 seconds, includ-ing 12-15 second pump-out time.

Gelman electrophoresis scanner (41x 33 x 18 cm) automatically scanscleared electrophoretic separations andreads absorbed dye intensity; displayedon a large, sensitive meter, the readingcan be plotted on standard graph paper(10 X 10 cm or 20 X 20 in.). Applica-ble to any of the new (most of theavailable) support media, the scannerfunctions on the principle of lighttransmission through a sample strip ofvarying dye intensity; small differencesin dye absorption are magnified by afilter of contrasting color. The beamthen strikes a photoelectric cell whosemeter is calibrated in optical densityunits (odu). Space atop the unit ac-commodates graph paper for immediateplotting.

Photometer useful from 500 m1y to2.4 tu through path lengths of 0 to101.6 cm (with adjustable focal length);for applications where conventionalspectrophotometers are inadequate. Inaddition to standard measurements(density, blood oximetry, reflectom-etry), it is useful in determining spec-tral responses of bulk materials,

monitoring thickness of thin film, andremote determination of optical prop-erties of intractable materials. OpticsTechnology model 240 consists of lightsource, detector, preamplifier, amplifier,power supply, and meter. Tungsten lampsource is operated from a regulatedsupply and modulated at 330 cy/sec;it is mounted with an adjustable-focusprojection lens on a mount which has4 deg of freedom and is removable forremote mounting. Detector, similarlymounted, consists of an interference-filter holder, variable iris, objectivelens, lead sulfide detector, and transis-torized detector. The tuned amplifierprovides step and continuously variablegain control and full-scale zero suppres-sion on all ranges. The meter has a 0 to100 scale and is good to + 2 percent.Dynamic range of the instrument is1000:1 in visible spectrum (opticaldensity, 3); 10000:1 in infrared (opticaldensity, 4). Linearity is + 2 percentover any 50: 1 signal change; stabilityis + 2 percent per hour; meter andrange-to-range error is 2 percent of fullscale. The meter signal is availablefrom front panel jacks to drive any100- or 10-mv high-impedance recorder.The high signal-to-noise ratio providedby use of modulated light and tunedamplifier and stabilized electronicsmake the instrument useful for mea-suring transmission, reflection, scatter-ing, and turbidity in difficult applica-tions.-D.J.P. (The Ranney Co.,Dept. S376, 155 Montgomery St.,San Francisco 4, Calif.)

Modular cuvette permits individualor serial measurements of pO2, pC02,and pH under controlled temperatures.It houses a thermostatically controlledwater bath, a heated wash-solution res-ervoir, and waste and wash containers.It accepts interchangeable measurementmodules which can be stacked on eachother to meet almost all measurementneeds. Each module has a cavity for aspecific electrode, a sample chamber atthe end of this cavity, and sample linesleading to and from the chamber. Whenthe modules are arranged for serialmeasurements, the sample is injectedinto the base unit; it flows upward un-der pressure, through the modulesabove, past the measurement sites, outthrough the lid module, and into thewaste bottle. A slight turn of any mod-ule cuts it off from the serial-measure-ment stream, making it available forindividual sampling. With a module soaligned, the sample to be measured isinjected into the inlet port of the mod-

How can you improve on perfection ?"How can you improve on perfection?", pathologists and techni-cians asked us skeptically when we introduced our new model ofthe AO "820" Microtome. They were certain that no one, not evenAmerican Optical, could improve the sectioning performance of theincomparable -'820' they had been using for years. U We knewthey were right! We knew we couldn't improve the way the "820"

sectioned tissue so we didn't try; we didn't change a thing in its time-proved operatingprinciple! But we knew other improvements could be made. We completely restyled the"820" to give it an attractive, functional look in keeping with today's modern laboratory.The feed indicator was moved from the back to the front where it could be more readilyseen. A new wheel-locking device added an extra measure of convenience and safety.The cover was made to swing back to completely expose the interior for easier cleaningand lubrication. * Yes, today's "820" is improved. But, it is still basically unchanged.It's the same old "820". It sections tissue in the same old way and with the sameincomparable ease and precision. * Carry a spare! How old is your present "820"?Perhaps now is the time to purchase a new "820". Our factory can recondition yourold microtome as a spare for rush period emergencies. Send for "820" Microtomebrochure, or see your AO Sales Representative.
