What is a Microtome? Microtomes are used for cutting paraffin tissues sections of uniform thickness. This instrument is designed to cut 1 to 60 Micron thin sections. Microtomy is a process by means of which tissue is cut into thin sections. These sections are stained and observed under microscope. Important Parts of a Microtome What […]
Microtome Laboratory Equipment Use and Maintenance A microtome is a laboratory instrument used for cutting very thin sections of material, such as biological tissue for examination under a microscope. It typically uses a sharp blade to cut through the sample, and can be adjusted to produce sections of various thicknesses. Microtomes are commonly used in […]
Histopathology Laboratory A histopathology laboratory is a laboratory that specializes in the study of tissue samples taken from living organisms. Histopathologists examine tissue samples under a microscope to diagnose and monitor diseases and conditions. They use various techniques, including staining, freezing, and embedding, to prepare samples for examination. The laboratory also uses advanced techniques like […]
What is Histopathology? Histology is the study of the microscopic structure of biological tissues. It involves the examination of thin slices of tissue, called sections, which are placed on glass slides and stained to enhance the visibility of various cellular and extracellular components. Histological techniques are commonly used in the diagnosis of disease and in […]
