Automation, Tissue-Tek
®
AutoSection
®
. The cutting edge
technology addresses today’s challenges of quality, efficiency
and speed.
Quality- & Patient Safety
Precision sectioning and consistent high quality, is now achie-
vable for every technician, every single block and tissue type.
The Tissue-Tek
®
AutoSection
®
automatically aligns, trims and
sections your blocks, including Tissue-Tek
®
Paraform
®
. The
combination of cutting edge technology and razor sharp Accu-
Edge
®
Microtome Blades enables thin, consistent high quality
sections. AutoAlign™ technology will precisely orient blocks
and dramatically reduce the risk of losing tissue. Another major
benefit of automation and stress free microtomy is the reduc-
tion of repetitive motion and the increase of staff satisfaction.
