Hands on Micromanipulator Tutorials

BTS will be giving two workshops on our Micro Support micromanipulator – one on basic micromanipulator use and a second on microplastics handling and detection. Sign up at our booth!

Precise Micro Sampling With a Benchtop Micromanipulator Tutorial
Tuesday 7/25/2023 – 5:45 pm at booth #1038

Microscopic sample preparation can be difficult to near impossible as structures become smaller.  We will show how a benchtop micromanipulator can be used to probe, scrape, cut, and isolate materials on a surface.  The system can also be configured to allow these microsampling operations inside a glovebox.

Attendees will be able to work directly with the system and are encouraged to bring samples they would like to try out during the Workshop.

Microplastics Handling and Detection Workshop
Wednesday 7/26/2023- 5:45 pm at booth #1038

Microplastics represent a new class of environmental contaminant that has been increasing over time throughout the world. We will demonstrate imaging and micro sampling using the Micro Support Axis Pro micromanipulator on microplastics samples.  We will also speak about Soar Optics class of comprehensive microplastics detection systems and where we see the future of microplastics detection.
