Application Area:

ultramicrotomy

This instrument is very easy to use at room temperature but also in cryo and very precise. The interface is very friendly to use and I like the optic equipment on this machine. For cryo the machine drinks not much liquid nitrogen, it’s very economical. You can use different type of special sample’s holders (for tube, planchettes ect…). Finally, the company who provides this machine is always reachable to answer your questions and make the maximum for the costumers.

This traditional ultramicrotome works very well, it is easy to use and reliable. The cryo-port is quite difficult to use- the tube is very fragile and expensive to repair.
