K-kit Wet "Liquid" TEM Kit
An Innovative Enclosed Specimen Holder for Liquid TEM
K-kits are sample holders designed to facilitate convenient TEM observation of liquid samples, allowing nanoobjects, aggregates, and agglomerates (NOAAs) in liquid samples to be characterized.
With vacuum compatible sealing of liquids in electron-transmitting thickness, K-kits are micro reaction chambers for countless experiments in materials, chemical, and biological research.
Features
- Applicable for most TEM holder brands
- Strong structural reliability under vacuum
- Sealing glue compatible to many solvents
- Disposable
- Free of cross-contamination
- Easy to use

Wet and Thin Layer Mode of K-kit
The K-Kit can be used in either Wet Mode or Thin Layer Mode.
Wet Mode: The loaded liquid sample is sealed and imaged using TEM in the native liquid environment.
Thin Layer Mode: A patented liquid drying protocol preserves the original morphology and physical state of nanomaterials with improved imaging resolution.
| Sample Preparation | Wet Mode | Thin Layer Mode |
| Inner Status of K-kit | With Liquid | Dried |
| Imaging Resolution | Good | Excellent |
| Gap Size (Considered) | 300~500nm | 2000~3000nm |
| Particle Size (Loadable) | 10nm~300nm | 3nm~2000nm |
| Particle Shape | Keeping original | Potentially, could be deformed. |
| Chemical Reduction or Potential Damage by Electron Energy | High | Low |
| Possible States of K-Kit | Liquid fully filled | Thin liquid layer on wall |
| Liquid partially filled | Dry state |
