Abstract
A cryotransfer holder for side entry transmission electron microscopes is provided. The cryotransfer holder design permits a specimen to be rotated about its axis as well as tilted while being maintained at a low temperature. The holder allows two sets of tilt data, preferably perpendicular to one another, to be collected from a single frozen specimen.
