Welcome to the Silesian Nanomicroscopy Center

The CENTER is dedicated for applied research on the medical pathology focusing on personalized medicine.  It is equipped with the up-to-data instruments including among others:

• Jeol JEM-F200 CF-CR TEM (Field Emission Cryo TEM System) equipped with TEM tomography, EDS spectroscopy, cryoTEM&Low Dose).
• Apreo VolumeScope FEG-SEM equiped among others with BSE T2, ET-SED, LVD, Brucker FlatQuad and MAPS software.
• Phenom Pharos G2 Desktop FEG-SEM
• Confocal microscope ZEISS LSM 980 equipped with Airyscan 2 and combined with Elyra 7 and Lattice SIM² super-resolution technique.

The laboratory is managed by a dedicated technical team.

Our special line of research is a myocardial pathology. The TEM Lab performs routine transmission electron microscopy study. In addition, we perform all electron microscopy specimen preparation techniques including cryofixation, freez substitution, high pressure freezing, immunogold labeling and CEMOVIS/CETOVIS.
