Diatome cryo knives and their applications
- Thinner cryo sections
- Perfect cryosections from ultrathin to semi with the same knife
- Minimal compression and best structure preservation
- Highest quality diamonds and optimal crystal orientation guarantee perfect ultrathin sections and a durable cutting edge
