Selection Guide for Semi-Automatic Microtome
When selecting Semi-Automatic Microtome, customers should consider the selection ranges that ensure precision, flexibility, and compatibility with their specific sample preparation needs. These microtomes typically provide a section thickness setting range of 0.2 µm to 999 µm, allowing for both ultra-thin and thick sections, making them suitable for a variety of histological and research applications. The trimming thickness range, also from 0.2 µm to 999 µm, helps users achieve efficient removal of excess tissue before fine sectioning. Additionally, a specimen retraction distance in the range of 0.2 µm to 999 µm minimizes blade damage and enhances sectioning accuracy. These broad and accurate ranges make the Semi-Automatic Microtome highly versatile and user-friendly for both routine and advanced sectioning tasks.
