The repositioning and refurbishing of the existing JEM-1200EX II Transmission Electron Microscope (JEOL) allows to perform observations of biological specimens by standard electron microscopy with a 120 kV electron source; furthermore, it provides scientists with the crucial opportunity to screen by a negative staining approach those samples that are candidate for structural determination by cryo-EM
