Microtome, Hand Held

This simple hand held Microtome is suitable for preparing cross sections of subjects typically for use in microscopy.

This microtome uses a threaded mechanism for advancing the subject (suspended in paraffin) toward an flat open end that allows a knife to cut thin sections of the subject. The paraffin can be removed and a wet mount or stained section can be created.
