Get Quality Serial Sections for Array Tomography Fast

AUTOMATIC CREATION OF QUALITY SERIAL SECTIONS Get consistent, ultrathin serial sections for array tomography in less time with the ARTOS 3D ultramicrotome. Pre-program the ARTOS 3D to produce automatically hundreds of ultrathin section ribbons with flexible block-face sizes. The ARTOS 3D (ARray TOmography Solution) automatically creates and collects hundreds of serial-section ribbons all ready for array tomography with your scanning electron microscope (SEM). Save time and effort in biological sample preparation and SEM setup procedure so you can quickly get the images you need to answer...

FAST, SIMPLE SPECIMEN SECTIONING AND ALIGNMENT Speed up your workflow while achieving high quality results with ARTOS 3D Close-up of a three-dimensional reconstruction of cytoplasms, nuclei and mitochondria in three migrating T-cells inside the densley packed lymph node paracortex. For optimal 3D reconstructions with array tomography (AT), ultrathin, ordered sections are a pre-requisite. With conventional ultramicrotomes this involves several time-consuming and cumbersome manual steps. The ARTOS 3D solution speeds up the process by automating specimen sectioning and minimizing the time...
