Sledge Microtome Sections

Sledge microtome sections:
In addition to the use mentioned above for bench microtome, this instrument is useful when material is hard. Fresh material after fixation may be directly mounted and after lubricating with a drop of alcohol, sections can be cut. This method gives better results t
han those with the bench microtome due to the rigidity of microtome and fixed blade..

This type of microtome can a:lso be converted into freezing microtome by attaching the cooling device
The sections obtained by above technique may be mounted directly in suitable mounting medium and place a cover glass over the preparation. The material is ready for the observation. If sections are fixed to the slide, they may be subjected to more complicated staining and mounting procedures as with paraffin sections.
