Nikon Instruments Europe and Slee Medical have announced a distribution partnership that appoints Nikon as the official European distributor of Slee's pathology specimen preparation equipment.
Nikon will distribute the full range of Slee's precision-made instruments and consumables to the clinical market, including hospitals and academic medical centres within Europe.
Slee microtomes, cryostats and embedders incorporate the latest technical and ergonomic designs.
The precision-made modular rotary microtomes range includes the manual CUT 4062, the semi-automated CUT 5062 and the fully automated CUT 6062, and is suitable for paraffin sections and research, and for plastic and industrial applications.
Ranging from the compact bench-top MTC to the larger MEV and fully automatic MNT model, Slee cryostats offer ergonomic, optimised design and professional performance with a large, easily accessible cooling chamber, easy-to-use electronic control and automatic defrost.
All incorporate a strong, precision-built rotary microtome.
The compact MPS1/P1 embedder provides a space saving and efficient system for smaller and medium-sized laboratories, while the MPS2/P2 offers a large container capacity.
This range is complemented by a comprehensive array of tissue processors, stainers and consumables.
