With its innovative vertical blade motion, stable agarose embedding, and compression mechanism, The Compresstome® Microtome yields ultra-smooth, consistent tissue slices devoid of chattermarks. Unlike traditional vibratomes that distort delicate samples, its vertical cutting approach preserves cellular integrity and tissue architecture for unprecedented clarity.

Precisionary Microtome Specifications and Details

The Compresstome® has been scientifically demonstrated to create more consistent tissue sections for immunohistochemistry and electrophysiology compared to other leading vibratomes. In a direct comparison, the Compresstome® (A, C, below) produced tissue sections with significantly fewer surface chattermarks than those produced by a leading vibratome from another brand (B, D). The sections were made at the same cutting speed and oscillation setting on both instruments.
