Product Features

Antistatic Waste Tray (Brush Included)

With the Antistatic Waste Tray, BIOCUT helps you keep your workplace clean, efficient, and debris-free. The tray is made from antistatic material which prevents paraffin waste from sticking to the walls. It provides unmatched efficiency by reducing your cleaning time from minutes to seconds.

Antistatic Waste Tray (Brush Included)

2-in-1 Blade Holder

With the 2-in-1 Blade Holder, you can easily switch between high and low-profile blades without changing blade holders. In addition, compared to our previous manual microtomes, the new modular design of blade holder helps you maintain individual components and efficiently service your equipment over time.

High-or-Low-Profile-Blades-it's-your-Choice

Put (Almost) Anything on Top of your Microtome!

Our new models feature 40% more surface area on top of the microtome (23.5cm W x 27.5cm L, vs. 21.7cm W x 21.2cm L on the RM22xx series) so you can store the tools you need for your job – brushes, blades, wipes, and more.

40% more Surface Area on Microtome Top Compared to older RM22xx Series

Precision-Orientation System

Always get back to a 0-position home on the microtome, regardless of how you (or another tech) have changed the instrument's orientation.

Force Balance System

Minimize the risk of injury to the operator or specimen by an unbalanced object head.

Silent Retraction

If working in a quiet environment, BIOCUT helps you concentrate and is your ideal sectioning partner with little-to-no noise during retraction.
