[Histonet] RE: MICROTOMES

[Marcum, Pamela A]

We have six Leica RM2255 and they are great workhorses.  The automated controls are flexible as they can be on either side or on top of the microtome as needed or is most comfortable.  I personally like using the foot pedal for facing the blocks and I do get old fashion and cut my sections manually.  I can do it automatically just like to be hands on for the final steps.

I am interested in which automated microtome is the best for reducing ergonomic issues.  All opinions are welcome :)
