Histology Laboratory Equipment

Description: The histology laboratory is equipped with advanced tools for tissue dissection, slicing, embedding, staining, and analysis. Key equipment includes semi-automated microtomes, paraffin embedding systems, cooling modules, and water baths. These instruments ensure precise sectioning, even paraffin distribution, and optimal conditions for tissue preservation and slide preparation. Designed for efficiency and reproducibility, they support high-quality sample preparation for histological analysis.
