DiATOME U.S.

Easily produce section ribbons (0.5–2μm) with no section loss or folding, with the same orientation of all sections and easy ribbon collection. Perfect for Immuno-histochemistry.

The Static Line II ionizer antistatic device emits negative and positive ions, neutralizing electrostatic charging. Sections no longer stick to the knife edge, or bunch up, but float in a ribbon over the knife surface.

For quick, easy and accurate trimming, the trim 20, trim 45, and trim 90 are superior for both room and cryo-temperatures. Due to their extreme sharpness, less mechanical damage is applied to the sample during trimming.

The ultra 35° has demonstrated its usefulness as a standard knife for the majority of applications in both biological and materials research. It is ideal for sectioning biological specimens such as un-decalcified bone and dental material, as well as materials research specimens such as polymers, crystals, and semiconductors.

The ultra ATS is perfect for placing sections on Si wafers to view under the SEM. The knife comes in 3.0mm size with 35˚ angle.

The ultra Diamond Knife is now available in Jumbo with 35˚ and 45˚ angles, and in 2.0mm and 3.0mm sizes. These knives are well suited for serial sectioning in 3D reconstructions and STEM.
