Equipment usage (on-site experiment)
You may visit the office and use the equipment only if you meet the standards of the COVID-19 response team and have permission to enter the facility.
Currently (5/23), entry by outsiders is basically not permitted. (It is expected to be relaxed after June)
When using the equipment, please make a reservation through the web system as usual.
The maximum number of visitors per room is one per day.
(JEM-2000EXII, EM-002B, sample preparation device accepts exclusive reservations for use.)
Due to limited capacity due to restrictions on the number of visitors, etc., the maximum number of unused reservations per room will be 2 per laboratory. (Please note that this is not for each user.)
Please make your reservation by Friday of the previous week. If there is no reservation to use the equipment as of the previous Friday, the staff will be required to telework.
As staff may be absent due to telework, we generally do not accept reservations for use during the current week.However, if you are an experienced user who can independently prepare and finish using the equipment, and troubleshoot problems, and have been given individual permission, you may be able to use the equipment in the absence of staff.

We are trialling online attendance using a web conference system. Please contact us for more information.

Currently accepting applications.
In order to prevent the spread of infection, please use e-mail, etc. to request experiments and receive samples rather than face-to-face.

Currently, the number of days our staff can work is limited, so we are unable to secure sufficient capacity for commissioned experiments. If you receive many requests at once
