"""The blades and knifes consumables are for use with microtomes and cryostats. Microtomes and cryostats are devices used to produce consistent thickness slices of tissue samples, they are then mounted on glass slides, stained and typically examined by microscopy. Microtomes for light microscopy typically use disposable blades, to maintain the quality of the cut and thus the section quality. Therefore theymust be changed regularly. The frequency of changing depends on the number of sections cut, hardness of the tissue and appropriate use."""
Details
Device typeMicrotome blade IVD, reusable: A flat, wedge-shaped, sharp blade intended to be mounted into a microtome to cut micro-thin slices of tissue that may either be frozen or fixed, and usually impregnated, with paraffin wax. The resulting sections are mounted onto glass slides for staining and then viewing with a microscope. The cutting edge will typically need to be sharpened at intervals. This is a reusable device.
