Cryogenic eCryoTag RFID (Radio-frequency identification) is the next generation of tracking samples in cryo-EM and crystallography.

This new eCryoTag system allows users to –

• Track crystallography and cryo-EM pucks and cryo-EM grid boxes at cryogenic temperatures (LN2)
• Help facilities and users easily keep track of their samples
• Add confidence they are collecting data on the right samples
• Cryogenic or Room Temperature scanning compatible

How it works – Cryogenic RFID Tags (eCryoTags) are embedded into the various components utilized in sample storage and tracking in cryo-EM and crystallography. These include sample storage pucks, grid boxes, or potentially other components (e.g. canes or dryshippers). The pucks and grid boxes with cryogenic RFID tags (eCryoTags) can be easily read using a simple reading system with a cryogenic compatible wand or via a puck reading station.

Users can correlate the designated ID to their samples. The system is able to be easily integrated into most LIMS.

Primary system components –

• Tagged sample storage pucks (Cryo-EM pucks, Uni-Pucks, SPINE Baskets) or cryo-grid boxes
• CryoRFID Reader (developed at the European Molecular Biology Lab (EMBL)

The system has multiple applications –

• Cryo-EM Sample Tracking
• Crystallography Sample Tracking (Beamlines ESRF ID30B and ID30A1 (massif 1) are already CryoRFID ready (equipped with reader). All other MX beamlines at ESRF are ready to be enabled with a reader)
• Other cryogenic sample storage

Developed in Collaboration with F. Cipriani (EMBL) & G. Papp (EMBL)

低温 eCryoTag 样品跟踪系统

低温 eCryoTag RFID（射频识别）是低温 EM 和晶体学中的下一代跟踪样品。

这个新的 eCryoTag 系统允许用户 –

在低温 (LN2) 下跟踪晶体学和冷冻电镜圆盘和冷冻电镜网格盒
帮助设施和用户轻松跟踪他们的样品
增加他们在正确样本上收集数据的信心
低温或室温扫描兼容
它是如何工作的——低温 RFID 标签 (eCryoTags) 嵌入在低温电磁和晶体学中用于样品存储和跟踪的各种组件中。这些包括样品储存圆盘、网格盒或可能的其他组件（例如手杖或干货船）。带有低温 RFID 标签 (eCryoTags) 的圆盘和网格盒可以使用带有低温兼容棒的简单读取系统或通过圆盘读取站轻松读取。

用户可以将指定的 ID 与他们的样本相关联。该系统能够轻松集成到大多数 LIMS 中。

主要系统组件 –

标记的样品储存圆盘（Cryo-EM pucks、Uni-Pucks、SPINE Baskets）或低温网格盒
CryoRFID 阅读器（由欧洲分子生物学实验室 (EMBL) 开发）
该系统有多种应用——

冷冻电镜样品追踪
晶体学样品跟踪（光束线 ESRF ID30B 和 ID30A1（地块 1）已经准备好 CryoRFID（配备阅读器）。ESRF 的所有其他 MX 光束线都准备好通过阅读器启用）
其他低温样品储存
