Frequently Asked Question
The Cryostat Microtome is used for high-precision frozen tissue sectioning, making it ideal for histopathology, clinical diagnostics, and research laboratories where rapid and accurate sample analysis is required.
The specimen holder reaches -50°C within 5-8 minutes of startup, ensuring fast and efficient freezing for high-quality sectioning.
The freezing chamber operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 60°C, providing optimal conditions for preserving tissue integrity.
A cryosectioning instrument, also known as a cryostat, is a device used to freeze biological tissue samples and cut them into thin sections for microscopic analysis. It is commonly used in histology, pathology, and research labs.
A cryostat maintains a low-temperature environment to freeze tissue samples quickly. The frozen tissue is then sectioned using a microtome inside the cryostat chamber to obtain precise, thin slices for further analysis.
It should be cleaned daily to remove debris and ice buildup. A thorough disinfection should be performed weekly or after handling infectious samples.
Yes, but you must follow proper biosafety protocols, use appropriate disinfectants, and dispose of waste materials according to laboratory regulations.
Refreezing is not recommended, as it can introduce ice crystals and damage tissue morphology, affecting section quality.
