9. An arrangement for incubating a microscopic sample to be subjected to high-pressure freezing, the arrangement comprising:
an incubation chamber including a bottom, the bottom having a lower surface and an opening; and
a middle plate of a high-pressure freezing cartridge, the middle plate having an opening;
wherein the middle plate is attached to the lower surface of the bottom of the incubation chamber by an adhesive and is detachable from the incubation chamber by effecting a relative movement between the middle plate and the incubation chamber;
wherein the opening of the bottom of the incubation chamber provides fluid access to the opening of the middle plate.
