Cryostat Microtome 23-LCM100 is a sophisticated piece of equipment that seamlessly integrates freezing technology and microtome tissue sectioning. Creates thin slices of frozen specimens within a range of 1µm to 100µm. The freezing chamber maintains temperatures of -10°C to -40°C for accurate sectioning. Designed with a user-friendly handwheel lock system, and an anti-fog window to enhance usability.

Includes an efficient UV sterilizer which prevents the cryostat’s surface from contamination
The Peltier stage regulates the cryostat’s temperature and prevents it from overheating
Offers dual compressors to facilitate 40 dB silent freezing
Featuring an adjustable cool plate, that can reach a temperature as low as -45°C
Cool plate easily holds 28 chunks with four colours specimen chuck for easy management
Refraction function of range 0 μm to 80 μm ensures zero damage to the specimen
Built with an adjustable chuck holder with a cutting angle of 12º for precise sectioning
Designed with an auto pump blade to avoid incised wound
Integrated with anti-roll plate prevents tissue from curling post-sectioning
Cryostat Microtome is widely used for thin sectioning of specimens under low temperatures for histology and pathology preparations, medical research, disease diagnosis, studying cellular structures and immunohistochemistry.
