[Histonet] Cryostat Feedback Needed (UNCLASSIFIED)
Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE Dear Histonetters, Our 11 year old cryostat is beginning to experience some unusual problems. Our Medical Maintenance says that they won't put a lot of money into fixing it because of the age of the unit. Therefore, I am asking for opinions, pros, cons of different brands of cryostats. I am interested in a cryostat that has the UV light or other source of easy decontamination. We don't do a lot of frozen sections but enough for us to have to have a good cryostat that is easy to operate and clean. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Diane, We have been happy with the Leica cryostats over the years. We have an 1800 that is about 15 years old, an 1850 that is about 5 years old with the UV light for decontamination.
