Because of the large movements involved in placing and aligning the
liquid cell, you will likely need to adjust both the detector and the
scanner position before imaging.
Liquid Cell with MAC Mode
The procedure for setting up the cell for MAC Mode imaging is similar
to that described above. However, the MAC mode sample plate contains
a ferrite core that can react when placed in solution or in contact with
the sample. Therefore, a cover slip should be placed over the core, and
the sample placed on the cover slip, to ensure that the core does not
contact the sample or liquid.
Flow-Through Liquid Cell
A liquid cell is also available with connections allowing liquid to flow
continuously through the cell. The connections should be made with
1 mm OD Teflon tubing, cut at a sharp angle for insertion into the cell.
