High-Quality Embryo Tissue Slices for Developmental Biology and Genetic Research

Research involving embryos, such as mouse embryos and Xenopus eggs, is critical for understanding early development, genetics, and cell differentiation. Precise, healthy tissue slices are vital for examining embryonic structures, gene expression patterns, and cellular processes with accuracy. 

Precisionary Instruments’ Compresstome VF-510-0Z vibratome allows researchers to obtain viable tissue slices from embryos for advanced studies in embryogenesis, developmental disorders, and regenerative medicine. The RF-1000 rotary microtome and CF-6100 cryostat provide thin, consistent sections ideal for histological staining and analysis of embryonic development. These tools offer precise sectioning solutions for advancing research in developmental biology and genetics.
