One of the departments in the University runs a class each year where they have the student's process, section and stain a batch of tissues. The microtome's they use have come from Noah's histology lab on the Ark. The mechanical workshop tries to keep them functional but they are really beyond economic repair. Obviously, re-equipping with new for a once in the year class is not an option and carrying microtome's around the campus is definitely not the favoured option. Does anyone know of a supplier of refurbished microtomes in the UK?
