Light Microscopes
Reliable instruments for infiltration, embedding and sectioning
Prepare tissue sections by using a variety of sectioning techniques. Choose the appropriate Leica instrument for your application: cut frozen tissue with a cryostat, fixed and paraffinembedded tissues using the Leica RM22 family of rotary microtomes, or native, unfrozen tissue under physiological conditions with a Leica VT1200/1200 S vibrating microtome.
Efficient staining of tissue sections
Stain your fixed sections and visualize cell structures at high resolutions. Staining workstations from Leica allow several staining protocols to run simultaneously, and can be programmed to satisfy customized requirements. Built-in filters reduce exposure to hazardous fumes, and the staining process can be monitored through a transparent lid.
