DESCRIPTION
Cryostat
The Thermo Scientific Shandon HM525 NX Cryostat is a high-performance laboratory cryostat designed for cutting thin sections from fresh and fixed tissue samples. The HM525 NX features a manual cutting drive and supports section thicknesses from 1 to 100 microns, with operating temperatures as low as -35°C.
A Peltier cryobar, cooled to as low as -55°C, facilitates rapid freezing of specimens for efficient tissue section preparation. The blade holder accommodates both low-profile and high-profile disposable blades, providing flexibility for different sectioning applications.
