FAQs of Semi Automatic Cryostat Microtome:
Q: How does the programmable quick defrost function work on this cryostat microtome?
A: The programmable quick defrost function allows users to select a rapid defrost cycle, ensuring any accumulated ice or frost within the cryochamber is swiftly and conveniently removed. This not only makes maintenance easier but also optimizes consistent tissue sectioning by keeping internal temperatures stable.
Q: What is the process for changing section thickness on this equipment?
A: Operators can adjust section thickness using the LCD touchscreen display. The thickness can be set anywhere from 1 to 60 m in precise 1 m increments, enabling tailored sectioning for various tissue types and research requirements. Simply select your desired thickness before commencing operation.
Q: When should UV disinfection be used in the cryostat microtome?
A: UV disinfection is recommended after each use or between handling different specimens to minimize contamination risks. Activating the UV function helps sterilize the interior chamber, maintaining hygiene standards crucial in histology and pathology laboratories.
Q: Where should the Semi Automatic Cryostat Microtome be installed for optimal performance?
A: For optimal functioning, install the microtome in a well-ventilated, dry, and dust-free laboratory environment, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperature fluctuations. Given its non-portable build, ensure there is sufficient bench or dedicated floor space for its dimensions (710 x 730 x 1200 mm) and easy access to a 220V electrical outlet.
Q: What safety features are included in this equipment to protect users?
A: This cryostat microtome is equipped with an emergency brake and safety lock switch to immediately halt operations if needed. The sturdy design along with UV disinfection and low noise levels under 60 dB contribute to a safe and comfortable working environment for laboratory personnel.
Q: How does the universal blade holder enhance usability?
A: The universal blade holder is compatible with both low and high-profile blades, increasing flexibility depending on the specimen type and thickness needed. This feature offers convenience, reducing the need for multiple blade holders and making blade changes smooth and efficient.
