Description
The cooling process is crucial in any histology laboratory. It is essential for obtaining high-quality paraffin block sections. Without this step, achieving good cuts is almost impossible. Using the YR440 Cooling Plate significantly improves this process, making cutting much easier and more efficient. Additionally, it speeds up the procedure and saves time for laboratory operators.
The YR440 Cooling Plate uses a new inverter compressor that quickly cools paraffin blocks. This model features a Teflon coating that facilitates cleaning, eliminating additional concerns. It also allows the temperature to be freely adjusted to prevent the wax in the tissue from becoming too cold or cracking. With a cryo-plate area of 320x300mm, this plate provides enough space to handle multiple samples at once, improving laboratory efficiency.
Market Price
The price of the YR440 Cooling Plate varies depending on the supplier and additional specifications, generally ranging from $2,000 to $3,500 USD. This investment reflects the advanced technology and precise features of the YR440, making it a valuable option for laboratories seeking consistent and high-quality results.
