Latitude® S establishes a new standard for the high-throughput gathering of low-dose, single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) datasets from Gatan’s leading K3®, BioContinuum®, BioQuantum™ K3, and OneView® cameras.

Latitude S integrates significant investments in cryo-EM apparatus, the TEM column, and the Gatan camera.

Advantages

  • Works with top cryo-EM cameras for single-particle analysis: Automate the capture of low-dose images on the K3, K2, BioContinuum, BioQuantum K3, GIF Quantum LS, and OneView cameras
  • Maximum productivity: The direct interconnection between Latitude S and Gatan cameras provides the best productivity and throughput possible
  • Independent of platforms: Compatible with a few Thermo Scientific, JEOL, and Hitachi TEMs, Latitude S allows users to freely mix and match EM column brands to find the best fit for their laboratory
  • Supported by experts: Available onsite training and help for applications
  • Shorten the time it takes to identify “good ice”: Rapidly scouts regions with differing densities and intensities to pinpoint the best places on the grid
  • Avert monotonous tasks: Use templates and a grid-based tool to label hundreds of distinct or contiguous places for additional research
  • Change the settings as needed: Adjust and revise the remaining phases in the workflow to guarantee regular consistency
  • Comprehensive task and session tracking: Get a real-time, all-inclusive summary of session tasks, including scheduled and ongoing activities along with their respective timings
Boost your imaging throughput with the Coma-corrected image shift mode with Latitude S software.

Boost your imaging throughout with the Coma-corrected image shift mode with Latitude S software. Define the image shift limit and grid hole size to automatically find and mark imaging clusters for Coma-corrected data collection; Add additional imaging clusters with a single click and without worrying about the same location getting imaged twice.

Automatic Targeting for Cryo-EM with Latitude S Software

Automatic targeting for cryo-EM with Latitude S software. Automatically mark hundreds of contiguous or separate regions for cryo-EM; Latitude S software enables you to efficiently explore areas of varying thickness and intensity; Now, you can quickly determine the optimal conditions and locations for "good ice" on your grid. Video Credit: Gatan, Inc.

Use Latitude S software to explore and add additional regions during cryo-EM data collection

Use Latitude S software to explore and add additional regions during cryo-EM data collection. With Latitude S software, explore and add additional grid areas on the fly during your cryo-EM data collection. A comprehensive summary of the entire session ensures you always know the acquisition status of your datasets. Video Credit: Gatan, Inc.

Easily manage a large list of tasks

Easily manage an extensive list of tasks. When single-particle screening with Latitude S, only schedule a few tasks to get feedback quickly or schedule the microscope to image every marked areaVideo Credit: Gatan, Inc.

Simplify repetitive single-particle screening tasks
