FAQs of Manual Cryostat Microtome:

Q: How does the manual cryostat microtome ensure optimal specimen preservation during sectioning?

A: The cryostat maintains a controlled temperature range from -35C to 0C and offers both manual and automatic defrost systems. These features, along with humidity control, help prevent tissue degradation and ensure sample integrity throughout the sectioning process.

Q: What are the benefits of using a hermetically sealed compressor in this microtome?

A: A hermetically sealed compressor provides reliable cooling performance, minimizes maintenance needs, and prolongs the instruments lifespan by preventing leaks and contamination. It keeps the cryochamber at consistent temperatures vital for accurate tissue slicing.

Q: Where can this manual cryostat microtome be used?

A: This instrument is primarily used in laboratories specializing in histology, pathology, and research. Its durability and efficiency are suitable for clinical, academic, and pharmaceutical laboratory settings in India and beyond.

Q: What is the process for sectioning specimens using this microtome?

A: Users mount the specimen, set the desired section thickness (1 60 m), and use the rotary advancement to slice sections. The LED-lit cryochamber and digital display support precision, while manual or automatic defrost functions and a built-in section counter facilitate smooth operation.

Q: How does the safety lock and humidity control contribute to user safety?

A: The safety lock prevents unauthorized access during operation, reducing risk of injury. Integrated humidity control maintains a safe working environment, protecting both specimens and operators from adverse conditions.

Q: What distinguishes the microtomes accuracy and efficiency?

A: The device guarantees 100%% accuracy in section thickness, supported by rotary mechanical advancement and a digital display. Highly efficient specimen processing is further aided by dual sample holders and a low-noise design.

Q: When is it appropriate to use the defrost system, and how is it operated?

A: The defrost system should be used routinely or when ice buildup is observed in the cryochamber, which could affect sectioning quality. Users can select manual defrost for precise control or automatic for hands-free operation, both designed to maintain optimal working conditions.
