Our Compresstome® tissue slicer is a vibrating microtome that uses a high-frequency oscillating cutting blade to help you slice through tissue to get sections for research and clinical use.

Agarose embedding is the process of embedding your tissue sample with agarose solution before you cut tissue slices with the Compresstome© vibratome. It takes only a fraction of the user’s time for sectioning overall and aids in the production of healthier and smoother tissue slides.
These vibrating heads are precisely aligned to eliminate vibrations in the Z-axis. Auto Zero-Z® technology helps reduce damage to surface cells on live tissue samples, and further reduce chattermarks on thin sections for improved imaging results
Experience unparalleled customer service with fast response times. Our dedicated team supports scientists and clinicians, ensuring successful research for years to come.
