Abstract

A New Model Sliding Microtome for ultra thin-sectioning for the electron microscopy is designed by authors. This microtome is a modified Jung type microtome and has such mechanism to keep 0.05 micron scale as follows; (1) inclination of the rail is 1:40; (2) pitch of the feed screw is 0.25 mm, (3) 125 teeth ratchet of hand feeding. Some electron micrographs of the tissue sections cut with this microtome are inserted in the text.
