Used THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC / SHANDON Cryotome FSE #148832 for sale

THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC / SHANDON Cryotome FSE is an innovative and highly advanced cryogenic slicing equipment from SHANDON, the world's leading provider of laboratory instruments and supplies. SHANDON Cryotome FSE is designed for cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) applications and allows scientists to prepare ultra-thin slices of frozen material. THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC Cryotome FSE has two cutting arm systems, which can be easily interchanged with either the standard cutting arm (for cryostat cutting) or the tissue processor arm (for frozen resin blocks). This allows scientists to use the same equipment for both cutting of tissue or blocks and for cryo-sectioning of thin, ultrastructural material. The tissue processor arm is specially designed so that cryostat cutting can be carried out without cross-contamination. Cryotome FSE also features an adjustable table top and a vertical sliding screen. The adjustable table top can be moved up and down, to allow for small variations in the size of the tissue block or slice that is to be cut. The vertical sliding screen allows viewing of the sample while cryostat cutting is taking place, thus making it easier to ensure that the cutting has been done correctly. THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC / SHANDON Cryotome FSE features a temperature range of -80°C to +20°C and is able to maintain a constant temperature throughout the cutting and processing of the sample. This ensures uniformity of the cryosection and minimises the risk of thermal damage to the sample. The instrument is also provided with a wide range of accessories and parts that can be used for a variety of steps in the cryo-EM sample preparation process. SHANDON Cryotome FSE is constructed of durable and corrosion-resistant stainless steel, making it ideal for long-term use in a cryo-EM lab. The system is easy to use and maintain, and users can be confident that their cryoslicing needs are well taken care of. THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC Cryotome FSE is also very economical to use, as it requires minimal maintenance and replacement parts. In summary, Cryotome FSE is an efficient and reliable cryogenic slicing equipment that is designed to meet the needs of cryo-EM labs. It provides users with a wide range of adjustable features, as well as a range of durable and corrosion-resistant parts. It is easy to use, efficient, and economical, making it a great choice for those requiring a reliable cryoslicing instrument.
