For use at freezing temperatures

High pressure freezing is the only method which allows freezing of aqueous samples up to 200µm thickness without visible ice crystal damage and without the use of cryo-protectants.

For ultra-thin and semi-thin cryosectioning of biological specimens, plastics, polymers, paper and wood products, magnetic and photographic films and any other materials requiring low temperature thin sectioning over the range from +35°C to -185°C.

For trouble-free freeze-substitution and low temperature embedding on a routine basis.

Easy-fit Cryosectioning for RMC MT-990 and Microm Rotary Microtomes

For use at room temperatures

This microtome is primarily intended for specimen surface preparation for: AFM, SPM, SEM, OM, FTIR. This microtome is also ideal for sectioning materials for Forensic, QC and Materials research applications.

Automates routine EM-sample fixation and embedding, freeing up valuable laboratory time. The advanced design is suited for resin processing of light and electron microscopy specimens.

The only Glass Knife Maker with micrometers for precision control and repeatable scoring. Uses “balanced break” method for optimum knife edges.

An economical manual-contol microtome for histology, materials and forensic applications. Section thickness range from 0.5 to 60µ with electronic knife feed.

Similar to MR2 but includes motorized operation with a variable cutting speed from 0 – 400 mm/second and foot switch control for both cut & trim functions.

With a motorized, programmable automatic trim, the MT-990 microtome is a high-precision instrument for sectioning both hard and soft material. When paired with its CRT-900 cryo-sectioning attachment, this is the ideal instrument for polymer applications.

This touch-screen controlled ultramicrotome uses computer power to simplify sectioning operations while capturing essential information in its integrated database.

The ultramicrotomes with patented Power Drive® technology. When gravity fails, the powered cutting stroke has enough strength to cut through even hard, non-homogenous specimens.
