Brief description
PrestoChill is an automated device for rapid freezing and embedding of tissue that is subsequently cut with a Cryotome. The tissue gets frozen within 1 minute at -40°C. Because of the "Face down“ embeddig technique the tissue is easy to orientate and needs less trimming. Up to 6 samples can be processed in parallel.
