• Can be chilled or sterilized
Acrylic, aluminum and stainless steel brain, organ and tissue matrices were developed to better help the medical research community prepare discrete regions in fresh or preserved tissue samples.
Kent Scientific provides brain, organ, and tissue matrices in the hope that the different styles and designs benefit whatever your needs require. The acrylic matrices are offered as a durable and less expensive device to prepare your tissue samples. The more durable aluminum and stainless steel matrices are useful when heat transfer or the maintenance of a specific temperature range is required in your scientific protocol. Acrylic matrices are not recommended for heat or cold transfer and will become brittle, if frozen or cooled.
We have selected our matrices to section tissue slices to a thickness as small as approximay 0.5mm (sections can vary from 0.5 to 0.75mm); depending upon what matrix design you choose to use. Ordinary industrial razor blades are generally used to slice the brain and/or tissue material. We recommend that the cutting blade be wetted with saline to act as a lubricant before shearing the target tissue. Micron tissue punches are also available for removal of specific areas of the tissues.
The coronal RBM’s have the additional feature of a mid-line sagittal cut to facilitate the splitting of the left and right hemispheres. Sections can be as fine as 1mm.
RBM’s have the olfactory/spinal notch cut into each piece. Due to our manufacturing capabilities, custom shapes and sizes are available quickly and are reasonable priced. Please call our Customer Service at 888-572-8887 for additional details on custom matrices.
