Cold plate in histopathology is an essential equipment used for rapid solidification of paraffin-embedded tissue blocks after embedding. Micron's cold plate accelerates the cooling process, allowing technicians to proceed to microtomy within minutes. This cold plate in histopathology is widely considered the best solution for reducing turnaround time in diagnostic laboratories.
The cold plate features a flat, Teflon-coated aluminum surface that rapidly extracts heat from paraffin blocks. The refrigeration system maintains a consistent temperature of -20°C, ensuring uniform solidification across all blocks. Micron's cold plate in histopathology is a top rated accessory for busy pathology departments. The digital controller provides precise temperature management with real-time display.
The best cold plate in histopathology from Micron accommodates up to 100 cassettes simultaneously. The large 300mm x 400mm work surface allows technicians to cool multiple blocks at once. The Teflon coating prevents paraffin adhesion, making cleaning quick and efficient. For histopathology laboratories processing high volumes, this cold plate is one of the best investments for workflow optimization. The automatic defrost cycle prevents ice accumulation that could affect performance.
Micron's cold plate in histopathology is constructed with durable materials for years of reliable service. The unit operates independently and can be placed at the embedding station or next to the microtome. Contact us to learn more about incorporating a cold plate in histopathology workflow. We offer professional installation and comprehensive warranty support.
