Dear Dom,

thanks a lot. Yes, this might work sending a combipuck alongside with a good bottle for the local contact.
I was wondering whether the grippers can handle a block of propane?

Best wishes,
guenter
Dear Guenter,

Would the use of vials inside combi-pucks (https://www.mitegen.com/product/combipuck-system/) and some arrangements with your local contact at the other end, perhaps help with using propane remotely?

Dear all,

we have some  delicate crystals which might benefit from freezing in propane. In former times (when I was still travelling to the beamlines) we waited until the propane was solid in the vial and then let the propane thaw in the cryo stream at the beamline.

But how can we  do this in these days with unipucks and no manual mounting?

I was thinking about freezing in ethane and then transfer the loops to liquid nitrogen, similarly we handle grids for cryo EM. Does somebody has tried that? Any experience, tips &  tricks would be very welcome! Thanks in advance and best regards,

Guenter
