The HistoDream automated and semi-automated microtomes offer unique tracking capabilities. During cutting, the histotechs have access to all the information collected during the grossing step. Simply by scanning the cassette, the operator will be able to retrieve the digitized images taken during grossing in order to compare with the embedded cassette, thus addressing potential mismatched numbers, sizes, or types of specimens and ensuring chain of custody.
EasyCUT neutralizes the electrostatic charges that often occur during cutting, helping technicians obtain a perfect, non-sticky, wrinkle-free ribbon, without chattering effect that is easy to transfer to the water bath.
