Details
Vibroslice uses a vibrating blade to slice tissues without the trauma produced by other methods. Live brain or other tissues can be cut into slices 50- to 700-microns thick. Fixed tissues can be cut down to 20-micron slices (these need not be embedded or frozen). Particularly useful for improving the access for certain histological reagents (e.g., during processing for horseradish peroxidase). The blade has a lateral displacement of about 1 mm, and its oscillating frequency may be varied between 60 and 4500 rpm. This allows you to achieve clean cuts in tissues of different mechanical consistencies.
