The Leica CM 1850 Cryostat incorporates the proven excellent features of its predecessor, Leica CM 1800, but additional emphasis was placed on power saving, increased efficiency, and operator safety. The result is a versatile cryostat with optimized cooling system, rapid specimen freezing, and smooth specimen orientation for the high quality sectioning demanded in routine histology and clinical pathology. Up to date technology with an ergonomic design – for quick and safe sectioning.
