💬 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is a Microtome Machine used for?
A Microtome Machine is used to cut extremely thin sections of biological tissues for examination under a microscope. It’s vital in pathology, histology, and life science research.
2. What are the types of Microtome Machines?
Common types include rotary microtomes, sliding microtomes, cryostats (for frozen tissues), and ultramicrotomes (for electron microscopy).
3. How thin can a microtome cut?
Standard microtomes can cut sections as thin as 1–2 microns. Ultramicrotomes used for electron microscopy can achieve sections even thinner than 0.1 microns.
4. How do I maintain a Microtome Machine?
Clean the machine regularly, keep blades sharp, avoid dust exposure, and lubricate the moving parts as per the manual. Always handle with care to maintain precision.
5. Can I use this machine for plant tissues?
Yes. The Microtome Machine is suitable for both animal and plant tissues, including hard samples when embedded properly.
6. What is the difference between a rotary and sliding MICRO TOME MACHINE?
-
Rotary Microtome: The sample moves up and down, while the blade remains stationary.
-
Sliding Microtome: The blade moves horizontally across the stationary sample.
7. Is training required to operate a microtome?
Basic training is recommended, especially for rotary and ultramicrotomes. Proper training ensures safety and accuracy during operation.
8. What types of blades are used in microtomes?
Microtomes use either disposable blades (high-speed steel) or reusable steel knives depending on the model. Disposable blades are popular for convenience and hygiene.
9. Do you provide after-sales support or training?
Yes, Hafiz Scientific Corporation offers after-sales assistance, operational guides, and virtual/on-site training (depending on your location).
10. Where can I buy a Microtome Machine in Pakistan?
You can purchase directly from Hafiz Scientific Corporation, a trusted supplier of laboratory equipment in Pakistan. We offer local support, competitive pricing, and reliable delivery.
