## [Preventing ice contamination in the cryo-ET workflow](https://blog.delmic.com/preventing-ice-contamination-in-the-cryo-et-workflow)

One of the biggest hurdles in the current cryo-ET workflow is avoiding ice contamination of the vitreous sample, which is difficult to avoid due to the many sample-handling steps. Learn here how to prevent ice contamination during lamellae preparation.
