Cryostat Microtome

Cryostat microtome is designed for sectioning of natural tissue. These are specially designed for clinical and research operations. Sections have the high resolution of cytological details required for pathological diagnosis, histochemistry, fluorescence, biochemistry, microscopy etc. Technique is simple and easy to learn.
