histo Jumbo
For 3D reconstruction it is imperative not
to loose a single section (M. J. F. Blumer
et al., Journal of Neuroscience Methods
120, pp. 11 – 16, 2002).
The large Jumbo boat as well as the
adhesive (Pattex compact by Henkel)
applied to the upper side of the sample
block increase the distinct advantages of
our histo knives.
They allow:
• |
easy production of section ribbons (0.5 – 2 µm) |
• |
no section loss |
• |
no folding |
• |
the same orientation of all sections |
• |
easy collection of section ribbons |
• |
multiple ribbons on one glass slide |
• |
perfect for immuno-histo-chemistry. |
