Sample preparation products from the RMC family

The ISS Group has announced the availability of RMCÆs family of electron microscopy (EM) sample preparation products. The line includes microtomes, ultramicrotomes, cryosectioning systems, automatic EM tissue processors, glass knife makers, propane jet freezers, freeze fracture systems, freeze substitution systems, freeze dryer systems and a wide range of associated accessories.

The AFM-990 precision motorised microtome enables users to prepare flat sample surfaces with minimal user interaction. A feed totaliser to record either the size of feed in microns or the number of slices to be cut is set up using a separate controller for hands-off operation. The motorised knife stage provides 28 mm of travel and has the option to add a cryo-attachment to permit sectioning from room temperature down to –180°C.
