Rotary Microtome LRMI-A10 is a manually operated (Paraffin embedded tissue block) cutting device with advance technology, offers slice thickness range of 0 to 60 µm. Features clipper-built case, handwheel with lock system, ensures safety of user. Equipped with 10° blade holder, provides ± 25 mm of movement range for blade holder base with maximum slice section of 50 × 45 mm. With multiple section thickness setting, specimen orientation system with 180° axis, this rotary microtome provides precision, control and comfort for making microscopic preparations for subsequent illumination.
Rotary microtome is used for the preparation of samples for observation under transmitted light or electron radiation, to cut thin sections of paraffin-embedded tissues across biology, medicine, immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, cryo-sectioning, cytology, biotechnology etc.
