Nahirney lab

Dr. Patrick C. Nahirney from the Division of Medical Sciences owns a JEOL JEM-1400 transmission electron microscope, purchased with assistance from CFI, BCKDF, and the Division of Medical Sciences.

Equipped with a 10.7 MP Gatan Orius SC1000 camera, the instrument boasts a 0.2 nm lattice resolution and a magnification range from x200 to x1,200,000.

The instrument is primarily used for imaging biological samples, but is suitable for materials and nanoparticle analysis. Detailed specifications for the JEM-1400 are available on JEOL's web site.

The instrument is housed in the Electron Microscopy Laboratory of the Biology Department and maintained by Brent Gowen.

Once users are trained by Dr. Nahirney or Brent Gowen, online booking of instrument time can be made through the CAMTEC online booking system. To arrange training contact Dr. Nahirney by email or telephone. Fees are according to Department of Biology's Electron Microscopy Laboratory fee structure.
