Product Overview
Labotemp Cryostat Microtome CRM-01 is a freezing microtome (cryotome) engineered for rapid frozen tissue sectioning in histopathology. Intended for intraoperative diagnosis and urgent pathology workflows, the CRM-01 delivers uniform thin sections with an adjustable cut thickness from 0.5 µm to 100 µm. The device features a fully enclosed cryogenic chamber to maintain stable freezing conditions and protect operators.

Key functions and design highlights

• Adjustable section thickness: 0.5–100 µm (see specifications for increment details)
• Fully enclosed cryogenic chamber for stable cooling and operator safety
• Integrated UV disinfection / UV sterilization system
• Specimen retraction function to protect blade and sample integrity
• Rigid microtome blade holder compatible with disposable microtome blades/knives
• Large-area quick freezing shelf for processing multiple specimens
• High-brightness cold LED illumination for specimen observation
• 16-position hand wheel for safe and precise manual operation
• Equipped with Danfoss (Secop) compressor

Applications

• Rapid frozen sectioning in hospitals and surgical departments
• Pathology laboratories for intraoperative diagnosis
• Oncology departments and research laboratories requiring fast and accurate tissue diagnosis
