Article Synopsis
- No prior reports have compared section thickness (ST) between sliding microtomes (SM) and rotary microtomes (RM), leading to a study using two cooling conditions: ice pack (IP) and continuous cooling device (CCD).
- Results showed that while ST was greater for SM under IP conditions, both microtomes had identical ST when using the CCD condition; thus, CCD was selected for further research.
- The study found a significant difference in ST between tissue surfaces and paraffin surfaces in fish sausage blocks, but no difference in human kidney blocks, highlighting the importance of consistent ST and cooling methods for accurate quantitative analysis.
