چکیده
A device for the controlled trimming of plastic specimen blocks for light and electron microscopy is described. Many advantages of previously reported instruments together with 1) a rack and pinion control of knife movement, and 2) a control of rotation of the specimen block at 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees, or 360 degrees are incorporated. In conjunction with an ocular micrometer, the device allows accurate removal of thin slices during trimming.

An Instrument to Trim Plastic Specimen Blocks for Electron Microscopy Prior to Sectioning
Two instruments for trimming plastic blocks prior to inserting them into the specimen holder of the microtome have been previously described. One of these is designed to shape the pyramid (1), the other is intended to approach the tissue by trimming the block and leveling the irregular edges of the polymerized plastic from the bottom (2). The usefulness of such instruments is obvious, especiall...

Background & Aim: Evaluation and classification of many renal lesions particularly glomerular diseases are only on the basis of renal biopsy. The clinician's request from the histopathologist is a timely and accurate diagnosis of renal damage which in addition to light microscopy is dependent on the assessment of immune deposits in renal biopsy and verification of immune deposits in Electro...

The study of cultural heritage artifacts and the research of a protection and restoration intervention create with - and are often limited to - a complete characterization of their surface. This is not only factual for museum objects, but also for archaeological artifacts, because the object as it was discovered may contain precious unknown information that could be lost by too much aggressive ...
