A Sledge microtome is a specialized instrument used in biological research labs to slice thin sections of samples for microscopy. It consists of a blade that moves across a sample mounted on a platform, allowing for precise cutting of samples into very thin slices for analysis. This technique is commonly used in histology and pathology studies.
Some common types of microtomes include rotary microtomes, sliding microtomes, and cryostats. Rotary microtomes are used for cutting thin sections of samples. Sliding microtomes have a stationary blade and a movable sample platform. Cryostats are used to cut frozen samples.
A freezing microtome is an instrument used in the laboratory to section small delicate materials. Sectioning is done on a platform which is frozen by snowing CO2. The microtome knife is also snowed with CO2. In this type of microtome, sectioning is done by the microtome knife moving towards the material to be sectioned. For materials that have alcohol, it should first be removed before being sectioned.
