Market Research Report on Microtomes/Cryostats & Automated Stainers

Traditional applications of microtomes include cutting frozen sections and sliding knives over stationary specimens for cutting wood. The most important criterion for evaluating a microtome is its ease-of-use. Cryostat is a flask-like vessel layered with two walls. The hermetic property of the outer wall prevents flow of air into the vessel thus maintaining the materials inside at constant or usually at low temperatures. Cryostats have the capacity to cool down to a billionth of a degree, and are the main components of Super Conducting Dipoles. An automated slide stainer is used for staining hematology, histology, and cytology slides for diagnostic purposes.
