The Hand Microtome is used to cut thin sections of Microscopic materials, such as specimen parts of plants and animals.
Microtome Biology Stage dia. 80 mm. vertical lift 20 mm. and least count 0.01 mm.
Can be securely attached to the edge of bench, table or work surface with the help of fixing clamp.
The microtome is suitable for practical courses in microscopy, for field work during excursions, for school education and for a serious amateur of biology.
The section platform has a smooth wide flat top and durable glass surface to guide the sectioning razor & to protect the hand.
The feed screw has fine and long threads so that the embedded material may be advanced very gradually to cut thin sections easily.
The Razor is made of surgical quality steel with 75 mm. cutting edge.
Good for basic lab and student use. The blade movement is smooth and gives fairly uniform sections if you handle it carefully. Not as precise as automated microtomes, but for manual work and budget setups, it does the job well.
