Rotary microtome
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The new Lcica RM 2165 automatic, heavy-duty microtome has an advanced step motor that permits an exact specimen feed and reproducible sectioning results. Features include 70 mm vertical stroke length, unique step trim function, and programmable specimen retraction. Technical features include a handwheel rocking sectioning mode; the motorized specimen feed can be linked to change the handwheel turning direction. Thus, the manual sectioning mode allows the user to trim the specimen by handwheel rocking in addition to the standard trim function. For safety, the Leica RM 2165 integrates two locking systems. The handwheel is easily locked in any position via a quick locking system, or sectioning can be interrupted by pushing a button on the control panel. Circle letter f on reader response card.

The Microtome for Native Tissues
This article describes the design of a microtome for sectioning of a native tissue. The base of the microtome is developed on the scheme of the rotary microtome. Using the microtome it is possible to prepare slices of animal and plant tissues of 100–400 μm thick. This microtome may be used for preparation of native tissues slices in cell physiology and microscopy.
متن کاملHREM: High-Resolution Episcopic Microscopy
The resin blocks are mounted on a motorized microtome. The microtome has to be modified to allow the block holder to reproducibly come to rest at a "photoposition" after each cut. E.g., the apparatus we operate in Vienna has its photoposition at the upper stopping point of the block holder excursion of a rotary microtome (Microtec CUT 4060E, microTec Laborgeräte GmbH). It is reproducibly reache...
متن کاملLight microscopic staining and histochemical applications for plant meristems embedded in Spurr's medium.
A simple and convenient procedure was u sed for studying plant m erist ematic tissues. Tissues were fixed in 4% glutaraldehyde, dehydrated in a t ertiary butyl alcohol series and embedded in SPURR's m edium. Sectioning may be done with a glass knife in an inexpensively made holder fitted t o a rotary microtome. Sta ining with 0.5 % aqueous safranin or fast green was followed by counter st a ini...
متن کاملA practical and rapid method of histological processing for examination of coronary arteries containing metallic stents.
A practical and rapid method was developed to study vascular pathology after implantation of metal endoprostheses (stents) that are used as internal splinting devices of tube-like structures. This method obviates the need for time-consuming grinding of thick sawing sections or removal of the prosthesis prior to histological processing, allowing for detailed analysis of the tissue in general, bu...
متن کاملUltra-microtomy by a new method.
Polymerization of n-butyl methacrylate monomer is used as a rapid and simple means for embedding fixed biological material. The solid resin provides an optically clear matrix for cutting very thin sections, one at a time, with a slightly modified conventional rotary microtome. Advance of the embedded specimen toward the knife is obtained from the thermal expansion of a brass specimen holder. Th...
