Engineered for Precision Sectioning

The LQ-225 Semi Automatic Cryostat Microtome provides highly accurate section thickness adjustment, ranging from 1 to 60 microns, allowing for versatile use in research and diagnostic applications. The universal knife holder, quick-freezing clamp, and both automatic and manual trimming modes ensure efficient and precise operation for the reliable preparation of tissue specimens.

Advanced Cryochamber Capacity and Controls

Accommodating up to 24 specimens with options for extra specimen holders, the digital LED display enables precise monitoring and control. An anti-fog system and UV chamber illumination promote clear visibility and sterilization, ensuring optimal working conditions even during long sessions. The large freezing shelf reaches temperatures as low as -35C for rapid specimen processing.

Safety and Ease of Operation

Designed with the operator's safety and convenience in mind, the LQ-225 features emergency stop, locking cover, and child lock mechanisms. Integrated transport handles, powder-coated rust-protected steel, and stainless steel components enhance durability and mobility, making it suitable for busy laboratories. Automatic/manual defrost and humidity control further streamline operation and maintenance.

FAQ's of Semi Automatic Cryostat Microtome:

Q: How does the LQ-225 Semi Automatic Cryostat Microtome ensure consistent section thickness?

A: The instrument offers both manual and motorized operation with finely adjustable settings, allowing users to select section thickness from 1 to 60 microns. The digital LED display shows accurate measurements, enabling precise sectioning required for histopathological evaluation.

Q: What are the benefits of the universal quick-freezing clamp in specimen preparation?

A: The universal quick-freezing clamp simplifies and accelerates specimen mounting and freezing processes, ensuring samples are securely fixed and rapidly brought to the optimal temperature for sectioning. This minimizes tissue distortion and preserves structural integrity.

Q: Where is the LQ-225 Cryostat Microtome typically used?

A: This microtome is primarily used in research laboratories, clinical diagnostics, pathology departments, and medical laboratories for tissue sectioning and rapid specimen preparation.

Q: What safety features are integrated into this cryostat microtome?

A: Safety features include an emergency stop button, locking cover, and child lock to enhance operator safety and prevent unauthorized or accidental use. Additionally, the chamber includes UV disinfection to reduce contamination risks.

Q: How does the defrost function work, and when should it be used?

A: The cryostat is equipped with both automatic and manual defrost options. The defrost function removes frost buildup inside the cryochamber, which is essential to maintain clear visibility and optimal working conditions. Use it whenever significant frost accumulation is observed or as part of routine maintenance.

Q: What optional accessories are available with the LQ-225 model?

A: Optional accessories include additional specimen clamps (up to 6 total), a disposable blade holder, extra specimen holders, and a footswitch for hands-free operation, enhancing workflow flexibility in demanding environments.
