Laboratory microtomes

Medical and biological studies are complex procedures, performed for analysis of different organs and substances. Special equipment and tools are used for this. Microscopes play an important role here. However, in order to study an organ under the microscope, it is necessary to get a section of the tissue. It has to be as thin as possible for thorough study. A special machine, called microtome, is used for this purpose.

Peculiarities and modifications

Modern medical equipment market offers many types of microtomes. The most popular classification is according to the use of devices:

  • for sections of animal tissues;
  • for sections of plant tissues.

Stabilization of samples is performed differently in these two types of equipment. Often it is paraffin embedding or fast freezing. In general, the manufacturers offer the following modifications of equipment:

  1. Ultramicrotome (used for thin sections – from 1 to hundreds angstroms). It is an ideal variant for samples, which are embedded into epoxide resin for further electronic transmission microscopy.
  2. Microtomes for paraffin section. It is a classic variant of a device for section from 5-10 micrometers to several millimeters.
  3. Cryotomes – models for freezing of sections. With them, the lab staff has no need for biological fixation.
  4. Laser microtomes. Used to cut separate areas off of the sections made.
  5. Vibratomes. Used for obtaining sections of non-frozen tissues. The main working part is the vibrating blade, with the help of which the device cuts objects.

Choose the modification of the equipment depending on further application of it.

Work in the lab

Freezing microtomes are the most popular among lab workers. They are indispensable for microscopic studies of plant and animal tissues, which means they are actively used for express analysis of tissues. Carbon dioxide is used as a freezing agent. In order to obtain the section, the tissue is cut with a knife, frozen with the help of carbon dioxide. When choosing such device, make sure that knives and instruments for grinding are included with it.
