Learn the best ways to use our micro-tools for sampling during microscopic work with the hope that it enhances your operations and interest in our tools.

＜ Sampling method ＞
To collect falling micro substances, use the sharp Tungsten Probe tip to touch and pick up the sample. A micromanipulator may be required based on the substance’s size and condition.

The sampling is possible due to the intermolecular (e.g. electrostatic forces) between the probe tip and the target substance.

＜Tool selection notes＞
Please select smaller or half size tips than the target substance.

＜ Recommended Micro-tool ＞
Tungsten Probe

＜ Sampling method ＞
Use the flat edge screwdriver-shaped tool’s tip to contact and excavate the target substance for sampling. A micromanipulator may be required based on the substance’s size and condition.

Use the tungsten carbide needle-shaped tool by pressing its tip directly onto the substance to extract buried or adhered samples.

＜Tool selection notes＞
Choose the appropriate tool shape for your target substance: flat edge screwdriver, knife-edge, probe, or fork.
