Abstract The high luminosity LHC project (HL-LHC) aims at increasing proton collisions by a factor of ten whilst extending physics exploitation until 2035. Its performance will rely on new focusing quadrupoles, beam separation dipoles and corrector magnets with large apertures to be installed both sides the ATLAS CMS experiments. A dedicated cryostat design about 1 m in diameter was developed f...

The experiments were performed with a home-built low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope (lt-stm) operating at 7 K using a liquid helium flow cryostat (Helitran lt-3b). The setup is similar to the combined afm/stm described by Wintjes et al. [1].

Binding of tumor cells to cryostat sections of host organs was studied. B16-F10 melanoma cells and reticulum cell sarcoma cells demonstrated an organ specificity in their binding in vitro that reflected the organ specificity of their metastatic distribution 25 days after intravenous injection. These results provide evidence for specific binding of tumor cells to the tissues that they selectivel...

We describe an immunohistochemical method, using monoclonal anti-H-2 antibodies, for demonstrating H-2 antigens in cryostat sections of a variety of mouse tissues. Double staining allows simultaneous demonstration of both cell populations in tissue sections from H-2b in equilibrium H-2k aggregation chimaeras.

Abstract This work describes cryogenic ex situ lift out (cryo-EXLO) of focused ion beam (cryo-FIB) thinned specimens for analysis by transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM). The steps and apparatus necessary cryo-EXLO are described. Methods designed to limit ice contamination include use an anti-frost lid, a vacuum transfer assembly, cryostat. Cryo-EXLO is performed in cryostat with the cry...

Objective: To assess the expression and localisation of the new metalloproteinase inhibitor RECK, an inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-14 (MMP-14) secretion and activity, in the synovial membrane of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: RECK expression in synovium samples from patients with RA, osteoarthritis (OA), and ‘‘trauma’’ were studied by quantitative real time reverse tr...
