I work at the departement of pathology, EM-lab and we are on the look out for a replacement/update for the old Pyramitome 11800 we still use.

The one we have now is quite old, but the working angle is perfect for searching for glomeruli in Epon-embedded kidney-tissue. We have not found a replacement, and are wondering if anyone knows of one.

We have the Leica EM UC7 ultramicrotome, but the working angle is not ideal for the purpose of searching for glomeruli. We would have to "randomly" trim and stain to see if we have glom, which would take too much time and is too uncertain.

The added picture is the type we have.

Would appreciate any advice and tips.

Thanks
