Vibrating Microtome

This instrument is designed to slice animal and plant specimens, either fresh or fixed, without freezing and embedding or processing. This method avoids the crystallization-caused damage to tissue samples and maximally preserves the bioactivity and morphology of cells; thus, it is an ideal tool for the immune cyto chemical research and the neurobiology of the spinal cord and brain slice.SF-400 Vibratome is one of the best quick sample-slicing machines used in the field of modern electron microscopy, anatomy, embryology, physiology, biology, and scientific research.

This instrument can achieve slicing with a minimum thickness of 10μm for fixed tissues such as fixed brain and spinal cord, and 30μm of fresh tissue (brain, heart, and kidney, etc.). Using this instrument, the user can obtain intact and smooth slices for even staining.
