This instrument has been designed to prepare pieces of tissue for metabolic experiments. It is especially applicable to small and irregular biopsy specimens or samples from small organs such as liver, kidney and various parts of the central nervous system. It causes much less disturbance of cell structure than homogenisers or blenders, and can cut fragments that would be difficult or impossible to cut by ordinary methods.
Slices up to 1mm thick and cubes or prisms up to 1mm in cross section can be prepared with the chopper in 30 seconds. Provision is made for stepless variation of slice thickness from zero to the maximum by means of a micrometer head calibrated in µm. The cutting speed can be varied from zero to over 200 strokes per minute. A safety limit switch is provided to prevent the machine overrunning, and a quick release mechanism for the return of the table.
Comes with standard table.
