Ultramicrotome for cutting ultra-thin (<100nm) sections of resin embedded samples for transmission electron microscopy. When couple with the Leica FCS the Ultracut T can cut ultra-thin cryosections, used mainly for the Tokuyasu technique for immunolabeling. Is also used to section semi-thick (0.5 – 1um) sections for light microscopy.
