Details about Vibratome 3000
Full Name Vibratome 3000
Category Microtomes
Description The Vibratome sectioning system allows for sections of fresh or fixed animal or plant tissues. The instrument employs a vibrating blade principle, which allows for sectioning without the need of freezing or embedding the sample; this avoids the alteration of morphology, destruction of enzyme activities and other deleterious effects inherent in freezing or embedding procedures.
