Specialised matrices are available for accurately slicing soft tissues like brain, spinal cord, and heart.

Channels are cut at precise intervals of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0mm, ensuring precision slicing thickness.

These tissue matrices greatly improve precision and repeatability.

Coronal or Sagittal orientations are available for mouse, rat, gerbil, hamster, guinea pig, and rabbit in either stainless steel or acrylic.

All matrices are simple to clean, easy to sterilise, and provide consistent performance.

These matrices from Harvard Apparatus are an economical and efficient way to slice discrete regions of brain and heart tissues, says the company.
