The Leica SM2010 R sliding microtome produces frozen sections of brain for neuroscience applications, high quality paraffin sections for routine histopathology, and sections of industrial samples such as foam or wood.
Ergonomics, safety and productivity are key requirements for all users. Leica Microsystems has incorporated these hallmarks of Lean Histology™ into the new Leica SM2010 R by reducing the working height of the microtome, by moving the object head closer to the user and by reducing the force needed to move the sledge. Blade insertion and removal has been made far easier and brightly colored safety guards on the blade and knife holders help to increase awareness to improve user safety and reduce the risk of injury.
