Specimen Preparation
Thermo Scientific CryoStar NX70 is a high-performance cryostat designed to prepare tissue
sections of frozen samples in medical and research laboratories. Specimen temperature control range is from -50oC to +10oC and blade temperature control range is from -35oC to -5oC. Section thickness can be ranged from 0.5 µm to 500 µm. Fresh or fixed frozen specimens, embedded in OCT, are suitable for cryostat sectioning. Frozen sections could be used for varying staining, such as histology stains, Immunohistochemistry (IFC) and Immunofluorescence (IF) stains.
