Routine sectioning of biological and materials science specimens
|
Acknowledged as the appropriate knife angle for routine sectioning of both biological and materials research specimens, it represents a balanced compromise between section quality and durability.
For the sectioning of a number of hard materials such as ceramics, semiconductors, oxides etc, with the use of the ultra 45° knife a longer service time may be expected. Kindly contact us and make use of our long years experience in all ultramicrotomy applications.
