Product news

Warner Instruments is pleased to introduce the NEW OTS 5000 Automatic Oscillating Tissue Slicer, the solution for sectioning fixed or fresh tissue.Engineered for maximum stability, the OTS 5000 slicer head minimizes Z-Axis vibration, allowing for even the most delicate tissue to be cut successfully every time.

The OTS-5000 features a user programmable cutting window to minimize time between harvesting consecutive slices, allowing the section-cutting range of the blade to be customized to the specimen sample.

Section samples in two different modes: Slice one section at a time, altering tissue thickness between manually-triggered passes. Or, automatically perform multiple uniform slices.

The OTS-5000 is also available with a Refrigerated Controller and Tray to maintain tissue temperature between 0-10° C.

The OTS-5000 Oscillating Tissue Slicer represents the most thoughtfully designed solution to sectioning either fixed or fresh tissue, and can prepare sections as thin as 5 microns. Embedding or freezing of the sample is not required, thus tissue preparation time is reduced dramatically. The risk of distortion and artifacts normally associated with these procedures are eliminated. The OTS-5000 meets the highest standards for precision and accuracy and it meets or exceeds the performance of units on the market costing twice as much.

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins.
