The Tissue-Tek® Cryo3 ® Flex is the 3rd generation of the trusted Cryo3 platform for fast sectioning of frozen tissue specimens.
The Tissue-Tek Cryo3 Flex is available in three configurations, to meet every laboratories needs and budget demands.
The range starts with the Basic, the cryostat with manual microtome.
The second model is equipped with automated disinfection and the third model offers a combination of automated sectioning and a motorised microtome.
Of the new features, the most important is the fine angle adjustment of the 3D Precision Chuck on all 3 axes. It uniquely ensures accurate alignment of the block face to the blade, reduces users’ trimming time and preserves patients’ specimens.
the sturdy chuck retains its position when locked and unlocked, eliminating any time and effort spent realigning the cutting angle.
The Tissue-Tek Cryo3 Flex D and DM-models are equipped with two ozone generating lamps, which significantly shorten the short disinfection cycle to 45 minutes only. Ozone engulfs the entire chamber, not only light exposed areas.
The maintenance-free microtome is located outside the chamber. This provides space for 12 Cryobar® specimen positions, including 4 Cryo+® positions that enable rapid cooling up to -50°C.
Menu-driven, user- friendly controls are available via the colour touch screen
Equipped with the new anti-roll rake and anti-roll plate, specimen transfer to the slide is further simplified, increasing ease of use, especially for the less experienced.
