Temperature-controlled bath for tissue freezing
In histology and pathology laboratories, rapid and precise freezing of tissue samples is crucial to ensure the quality of microscopic examination. Traditional methods often involve the tedious and costly process of handling dry ice, hindering efficient workflow.

Achieve precise tissue freezing up to -80°c
The FTS HistoChill is a temperature-controlled bath designed specifically for the rapid freezing of tissue samples, ensuring precise and reliable results. Unlike conventional methods that rely on dry ice, the HistoChill utilizes mechanical refrigeration and a liquid medium, achieving uniform freezing temperatures as low as -80°C. The built-in magnetic stirrer aids in temperature uniformity, effectively minimizing ice crystal formation. With an advanced temperature control system and insulated chamber lid, the HistoChill maintains consistent cooling, making it suitable for stringent tissue-specific and research applications. Available in two configurations, this solution from SP FTS is tailored to meet both general and advanced freezing needs in histology and pathology laboratories.
