2212-021 Cryostat

When frozen sectioning is infrequent and a full-sized, full-priced cryostat cannot be justified, the Starlet does the job and fits any budget. Inexpensive and reliable, the Starlet, ideal where space and funds are limited, really is unique amongst cryostats. Fully portable, it can be transported with ease from laboratory to laboratory and is a must for use in the field – the possibilities are endless.

Two Starlet models are available, with or without an installed UV decontamination system (not retrofittable) for user safety when handling potentially infectious specimens.
