Advantages in Electrophysiology
- Healthier Neurons: More neurons for patch-clamp electrophysiology.
- Increased Tissue Viability: Longer survival time due to healthier brain slices.
- User-Friendly: Easy to learn operation. Build to last with a 5-year warranty.
- Durability: Built to last in demanding lab environments.
- Hands-On Support and Training: One-on-one comprehensive technical assistance.
- Trusted by Experts: Used by hundreds of electrophysiology researchers.

Advantages in Immunohistochemistry
- Better staining for imaging Achieve smooth uniform tissue sections.
- Adjustable Thickness: Cut down to 10µm thickness, ideal for IHC studies.
- Auto Zero-Z Technology: Preserves tissue morphology for accurate IHC results.
- Automated for Efficiency: Streamline workflow and boost lab productivity.
- Save Time: Skip freezing or extra lab prep, saving valuable time.

Sectioning at Scale: The VF-800-0Z
- Built for Scale: Handles large tissue blocks and whole organs, well beyond standard rodent-scale slicing.
- Whole-Hemisphere Capability: Custom large-format configurations have sectioned whole primate brain hemispheres intact.
- Published Performance: Cut the whole rhesus macaque brain behind a landmark micrometer-resolution connectomics atlas.
- No Freezing, No Paraffin: Same compression-based cutting as the rest of the Compresstome line, scaled up for large fixed or agarose-embedded tissue.
- Build-to-Order: Custom bore and tube configurations available for labs working past catalog dimensions.
Advantages in Large-Format & Whole-Brain Sectioning
The VF-800-0Z ships in a standard large-tissue configuration; whole-hemisphere sectioning runs on a custom large-format build. Stop by Booth 901 to talk through what your tissue needs.
