About This Product
A rotary microtome is used in biology to cut thin, even sections of tissue for slides. Turning the drive wheel moves the specimen past the knife held in the knife holder, and the specimen advances by a set amount on each turn, so a series of sections of equal thickness can be cut. The heavy base keeps the instrument steady during cutting, and the hinged cover keeps dust away from the mechanism when it is not in use.
