Specimen preparation is an integral part of all disciplines of microscopy. For specimens which have to cut, processed and prepared, it is imperative to work on a clean, smooth and contamination-free dedicated preparation surface, appropriate for the task at hand. Dedicated preparation surfaces protect your tools and/or the lab bench. Standard laboratory bench surfaces are not always ideal for specimen preparation and can be easily damaged with cutting tools. The Micro-Tec selection of preparation tiles, trimmimg boards and cutting mats offer a comprehensive choice of specimen preparation surfaces for a wide range of applications:
- Micro-Tec PrepTile are highly polished black granite preparation tiles in 15 x 15cm and 30 x 30cm
- Micro-Tec PrepBoard is a smooth and sturdy white polyethylene cutting board; size is 29.5 x 24.5cm
- Micro-tec PrepPlate is a smooth hardened clear glass plate with a size of 36 x 26cm
- Micro-Tec PrepMat are self-healing blue cutting mats in A5 and A4 formats for cutting and specimen coring.
