Temperature-controlled bath for tissue sample freezing

Achieve rapid and reliable tissue freezing for precise histological examination, eliminating the reliance on costly and cumbersome dry ice, ensuring optimal temperature control and minimization of ice crystal formation.

Rapidly Freezes and Preserves Tissue Samples

The FTS HistoChill Temperature-Controlled Freezing Bath from Scientific Products offers precise tissue refrigeration, essential for histology and pathology labs. It employs a mechanical refrigeration system combined with a liquid medium to freeze tissue samples rapidly, minimizing ice crystal formation. The built-in magnetic stirrer ensures uniform temperature distribution, crucial for producing high-quality biopsy samples and tissue slides. With its ability to reach temperatures as low as -80°C, the HistoChill eliminates the need for dry ice, reducing costs and handling risks. Ideal for manual bench-top operations, it integrates seamlessly into laboratory workflows, aiding in efficient tissue processing. The insulated chamber and warming loop minimize frost build-up, promoting consistent, reliable results. Crafted for various applications, the HistoChill is designed to meet the demanding needs of biomedical and clinical research environments.
