Product DetailsMicrotome cuts embedded tissues into thin slices for applications in histology or pathology. Depending upon the type of specimen and desired thickness it uses blades of diamond, steel or glass for further analysis by light microscopy or transmitted electron microscopy (TEM).
- Used in: Histopathology, Traditional Histology Technique, Cryosectioning Technique, Microscopy
- Also known as: Histomes, Cryostats
Key Features- It adopted the advanced import actuation system so that can slice the tissues more precisely, more reliable and quiet.
- The LCD display shows the slice and trimming thickness, section counter in Chinese or English version.
- It has special function of sample retraction. It can avoid the damage due to the attrition between sample and the back of knife so that the slice is more smooth and the life of the knife is longer. The hand wheel can be locked in any position to make the section as safe and convenient as possible. The waste bath can be disassembled easily. It has safety alarm system.
