Frequently Asked Questions
1: When is a Cryostat typically used in a laboratory?
It is used to prepare frozen tissue sections quickly for histological or pathological evaluation. Cryostats are essential for intraoperative diagnosis and research on fresh tissue. They maintain tissue structure by avoiding chemical fixation.
2: Can the Cryostat control both specimen and chamber temperatures?
Yes, modern Cryostats offer separate controls for specimen head and chamber temperatures. This ensures optimal freezing and cutting conditions. Accurate temperature regulation improves section quality.
3: Can it be used for a wide range of tissue types?
Yes, Cryostats are suitable for soft and firm tissues, including brain, muscle, and tumours. Section thickness and temperature settings can be adjusted accordingly. Proper technique enhances results across tissue types.
4: When should the blade be replaced during cryosectioning?
Blades should be replaced when sections tear, curl, or show rough edges. Frequent blade changes help maintain clean and consistent cuts. Proper disposal of used blades ensures lab safety.
5: Can Cryostats run continuously during long shifts?
Yes, they are designed for extended use with stable temperature maintenance. Ensure adequate ventilation and monitor coolant levels if applicable. Routine breaks for cleaning can improve longevity and performance.
