PRODUCT INFORMATION

Cryostats from Micron are precision refrigerated microtomes designed for cutting frozen tissue sections in histopathology and research laboratories. These essential instruments enable rapid diagnosis during surgical procedures. Micron cryostats are widely considered the best equipment for intraoperative frozen section consultations.

Our cryostats feature dual-compressor refrigeration systems that maintain chamber temperatures between -20°C and -35°C. The encapsulated microtome assembly prevents ice buildup that can compromise section quality. Micron cryostats are top rated instruments for Mohs surgery and tumor margin assessment. The UV sterilization system decontaminates the chamber between cases.

The best cryostats from Micron include motorized or manual cutting options. The digital display shows section thickness, chamber temperature, and section count. The specimen retraction function prevents blade damage during the return stroke. For laboratories performing frozen sections daily, Micron cryostats are one of the best investments for surgical pathology services. Each unit includes 10 freezing stations and a quick freeze shelf reaching -40°C.

Micron cryostats feature heated anti-fog glass windows for clear visibility. Units include lockable castors for easy mobility.
