Campden Instruments’ vibrating microtomes—also called vibratomes—are precision-built to ensure high-quality slices with minimal tissue deformation that are used widely in neuroscience, physiology, biology, pathology, and tissue sectioning.
Campden Instruments is a leading manufacturer of vibratomes for the life science industry where they have been used for over 30 years to produce sections for brain slicing, spinal cord studies, precision cut lung slices, living myocardial slices and more. High-quality slices are used for visual patching, extracellular recording and imaging of neurological (e.g. brain slice, spinal cord), heart, lung, pancreatic and liver tissue, as well as for sectioning plant material.
Our vibratomes are built to meet the needs of researchers in a range of fields, including electrophysiology, cell biology, cardiovascular physiology and histology. Whatever tissue you are working with, our vibratomes can help you achieve high-quality results.
