Thermo Fisher Scientific has introduced the Thermo Scientific Cryostar NX70 Cryostat for a range of cryotomy applications for both clinical and research use.
The design of the Cryostar NX70 combines user comfort with Rapid Response Temperature Control and a knife carrier feed to deliver precise section thickness and consistency.
The Cryostar NX70's LCD display and electronic touch-screen, together with joystick control, are designed to enable quick and reproducible instrument set-up.
Fine adjustment specimen orientation on all axes enables fast and easy specimen alignment.
The Temperature Control system adjusts quickly to changes in settings, enabling rapid cooling, as well as consistent and precise temperature control.
Three user-defined favourites enable frequently used temperature settings to be instantly recalled.
The form-fit design of the Cryostar NX70 ensures high user comfort.
Integrated, motorised height adjustment allows users to work comfortably in either a standing or sitting position, eliminating the back and neck strain often associated with frozen sectioning.
Motorised cutting reduces user fatigue and avoids repetitive injury, while the large open chamber with bright, adjustable LED lighting provides optimal visibility during sectioning.
Optional extras further enhance the performance and operator safety of the Cryostar NX70.
Extras include the Cold-D disinfection system for protection against surface contaminants and Vacutome for wrinkle-free sections and waste removal.
