Precision Sectioning for Laboratory ApplicationsThis hand table microtome enables precise and thin sectioning of biological specimens, making it a vital tool for educational, research, and pathological laboratories. The adjustable cutting thickness from 10 to 30 microns ensures consistency and accuracy in sample preparation for microscopic analysis. Its robust construction using brass, stainless steel, and cast iron ensures durability and reliability.
Effortless Manual Operation and Secure MountingThe device operates through a simple hand crank mechanism, allowing controlled and finely tuned slicing. Its base features an integrated clamp, ensuring the microtome remains securely fixed to any standard laboratory table, providing stability during the cutting process. The rust-resistant finish and polished surface make it easy to maintain and clean after use.
FAQs of Hand Table Microtome:
Q: How does manual adjustment of cutting thickness enhance sample preparation?
A: By allowing cutting thickness adjustment between 10 and 30 microns, users can customize sections to match specific experimental or diagnostic requirements, improving the precision and clarity of microscopic observations.
Q: What is the process for mounting and securing specimens before sectioning?
A: The specimen is placed in the solid brass holder, which tightly grips it, ensuring stability throughout the cutting process. The mounting clamp on the base is then used to fix the microtome rigidly to the laboratory table for safe and precise operation.
Q: Where is this hand table microtome typically used?
A: It is commonly found in educational institutions, research facilities, and pathological laboratories where thin sectioning of tissue samples for microscopic analysis is required.
Q: What type of blades are compatible with this microtome?
A: The microtome is designed to work with standard microtome blades or razors, providing flexibility and ease of blade replacement according to user preference and application.
Q: When should this microtome be chosen over automated models?
A: A hand table microtome is ideal for situations requiring portability, ease of use, and manual control, especially in locations lacking electrical infrastructure or when working with small specimen batches.
Q: What are the benefits of its rust-resistant and polished surface?
A: The rust-resistant finish ensures a longer equipment lifespan and simplifies cleaning, reducing contamination risks and maintaining a hygienic laboratory environment.
