TPI 1000 vibratome

The TPI 1000 is available at the Marley location. A vibratome is useful for sectioning fresh or fixed tissues into thicker slices, such as 100-200um in thickness. It features an adjustable sectioning window, a bath drain, stroke pause switch, and an anti-corrosion surface. It has a total vertical specimen stroke of 15mm.

Users will need to receive training before they can access the vibratome, as the vibrating razor blade has the potential to be very hazardous.
