New Cryostat's 27 Cooled Specimen Positions Offer Flexibility, Functionality
RUNCORN, U.K. --(Business Wire)--
A new manual cryostat offers scientists improved functionality and
ergonomics, ensuring efficient, high-quality frozen sectioning.
The Thermo Scientific HM525 NX is a routine clinical cryostat that has
27 cooled specimen positions, including 4 fast freeze positions,
allowing a high degree of flexibility when managing specimens.
"Pathologists rely on quick turnaround time and excellent sectioning
quality from their cryostat," said Richard Vernon, commercial product
manager, anatomical pathology, for Thermo Fisher Scientific. "Our HM525
NX cryostat gives them the functionality and control to achieve
diagnosis rapidly."
Designed with an LCD touch screen interface with icon-driven software,
operation is streamlined for the user. Users can change parameters
simply and quickly to meet the demands of different specimen types.
In addition, the HM525 NX offers:
-
Optional powerful on-demand, or scheduled, UV disinfection can be
initiated throuh the intuitive icon-driven software to protect the
operator.
-
Reliable and tested stepper motor technology delivers reproducible
section thickness (sectioning range 1-500µm; 64mm vertical specimen
stroke).
-
Enhanced user comfort while seated at the cryostat during long cutting
sessions by incorporating greater knee space.
