[Histonet] Cryostat Feedback Needed (UNCLASSIFIED)

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.

Thanks,
Diane Gladney

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.

Hi Diane,
