The Microm HM 550 is an awesome cryostat, and meets requirements 1-3 for
sure.  Not sure about the price.  I think we got ours used...  There is room
for a 100 count slide box, but you'd have to maneuver it a bit in order to
get the lid open and a slide in there.

Subject: [Histonet] Cryostat- information for new please

Hi All, including Vendors
We're in the market for a new cryostat.  Here are our needs:

1. Cutting rat and mouse brains.
2. Ability to keep temperature while cutting for a couple hours at a time.
3. Able to cut 8 to 20 microns.
4. Room in the cryostat for a 100 slide holder (to keep sections frozen 
after cutting.
5. Good price, as this is research.  We don't need anything fancy.

Thanks for any information you can give,
Cindi Roberts
