Based on the long-established and reliable
OTF cryostat range, the new OTF6000 brings
Bright cryostats completely up to date. New
styling with improved user ergonomics, the
latest blade systems in the ever-reliable and
powerful 5050 microtome, a huge choice of
options plus money-saving package deals
make these cryostats absolutely unique.
They are suitable for an endless range of
applications and in the correct configuration
are capable of cutting a wide diversity of
specimens from undecalcified bone to brain,
resins, plastics and plant tissue as well as
more usual soft tissue. Allowing full anti-roll
plate adjustment for perfect results coupled
with long lasting temperature stability, the
OTF6000 can truly be described as complete.
