Apollo sets record for MicroED resolution

In a recent announcement on social media, a researcher from Osaka University, in collaboration with JEOL, tested MicroED on a CryoARM 300 microscope using the Apollo detector.

They achieved a map of sodium glutamate monohydrate with 0.5 angstrom resolution. To our knowledge, this is the highest resolution MicroED reconstruction ever recorded. We’re looking forward to seeing even more exciting results like this from Apollo in the future!
