These Rodent Heart and Spinal Cord Matrices aid in the dissection of discrete regions of a rodent heart or spinal cord, or comparably sized organ. They allow the investigator to slice repeatable sections of the sample, enabling precise blocking prior to microtome sectioning and the removal of small, reproducible brain regions (i.e. discrete terminal fields or nuclei) for biochemical analysis.
All matrices are designed for long-term use, and matrices of any given type are identical to insure reproducible sections. Channels are cut at precise intervals ranging from 0.50 to 3.00 mm and are 0.3 mm wide. Other species, sizes and materials are available upon request.
