Leica EM AFS2 Freeze Substitution Device

Leica EM AFS2 is a freeze substitution platform that performs freeze substitution and progressive lowering of temperature (PLT) techniques and allows low temperature embedding and polymerization of resins. The Leica EM FSP (freeze substitution processor), an automatic reagent handling system combined with the Leica EM AFS2, dispenses reagents for both freeze substitution and PLT applications. The LED illumination from within the chamber and the attached stereomicroscope for viewing and positioning of samples ensures ease of use. [Product Link]

Leica EM FC6 UC6b Ultramicrotome

Leica Ultracut EM UC6 is an advanced ultramicrotome that features a Touch Screen Control Panel or a Keypad Control Panel. Both options enable fast and safer alignment of knife and specimen, and the programmable knife and cutting movements make trimming easy. With Leica's AutoTrim, you can automatically trim a specimen to a predetermined level in the block face, best for morphometric studies. Three dependent, built-in, brightness- controlled LED light sources provide outstanding illumination for top light, back light, and specimen transillumination. [Product Link]

Leica VT1200S vibrating microtome

Fully automated Leica VT1200 S vibrating blade microtome is designed to meet the highest sectioning demands for cutting fresh and fixed tissue in Neuroscience. To achieve sections of the highest quality that retain viable cells on the section surface, the vertical deflection of the blade can be measured by Leica's Vibrocheck measurement device and minimised with the blade holder. The instrument was designed in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Peter Jonas and his group at the Physiology Department, Freiburg Germany. [Product Link]
