Microtome and Accessory

Microtome and accessories are equipment and related supplies designed to prepare sections of tissue samples for downstream microscopy. Microtomes are used to section hard or processed and embedded tissue for staining and microscopic examination to aid in research and disease diagnoses. Microtomes can thinly slice plant and animal tissue or other materials. Microtome are more commonly used in healthcare but can also be used in scientific, academic and industrial laboratories. Most microtomes cut with knives and blades and require chemical treatment of samples.
