We are a molecular biology lab with a histology facility (we do whole FFPE tissue sections to build TMAs and then TMA sectionning). We currently have a Leica RM2125 in the lab, but want to acquire a new manual microtome, mainly as a safe because we depend a lot on tissue sectioning. Could anyone give me some advice/suggestion on which microtome to buy? We only use the regular cassettes.
