Mouse Brain Matrix - Sagittal, 1 mm, Stainless Steel, 40-75 g
Cat No.: RWD-68708
Description
This Mouse Brain Matrix is a precision-machined instrument designed for reproducible sagittal sectioning of adult mouse brains weighing 40-75 grams. Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, this matrix is built for durability and long-term use in demanding laboratory environments.
Specifications
Sectioning Precision:
Enables the preparation of consistent sagittal brain slices at 1 mm intervals, supporting accurate anatomical studies, pathological tissue sectioning, and region-specific dissection for biochemical analysis.
Material and Construction:
Made from highly polished, corrosion-resistant stainless steel, the matrix withstands repeated autoclaving, heating, chilling, and exposure to harsh chemicals without surface degradation or loss of precision.
