静电消除器 - 消除静电
冷冻免疫 - 带有大钻石平台的刀,可方便从蔗糖浸润样品中提取冷冻切片(Tokuyasu)
cryo 25°- 用于切割冷冻水合样品的低角度钻石刀(CEMOVIS)
超原子力显微镜和冷冻原子力显微镜-用于产生绝对光滑和平坦的生物和技术样品表面的刀,用于在原子力显微镜中进行观察
超声波 - 摆动式钻石刀,可消除压力并保持最佳结构
配件 - 例如拾取环,专用镊子,专用刀船等。
与您,我们尊贵的客户合作,才有可能实现这些发展。DiATOME坚信,将来也可能会有新的发展,并且我们的刀具会适应不断变化的要求。
DiATOME钻石刀的特点
DiATOME钻石刀可与所有超薄切片机兼容船的设计方式是,在设定间隙角时,水是水平的。这样可以使水面保持静止并具有良好的反射效果。
DiATOME钻石刀船的形状为您提供了容易拿起浮动部分的优势。
DiATOME钻石刀的表面是亲水性的。即使在水位非常低的情况下,该特性也可以轻松润湿切削刃(对于切片Lowicryls和其他亲水性包埋介质以及对水敏感的样品很重要)。
钻石被高真空钎焊到金属柄上,然后将其牢固地拧入船中。
胶合材料密封船刀。它具有亲水性,有助于轻松润湿切削刃。
重磨和以旧换新服务
重新磨光的DiATOME刀具与新刀具一样经过严格的光学检查和切片测试。
DiATOME重磨的钻石刀与新钻石刀一样高质量!
在DiATOME您可以选择:重新磨刀,或以稍高的价格换成新刀。
在以旧换新价格中,可以进行类型更改(从超低温到低温,从45°到35°,从小刀到大刀等)。
DiATOME保证为我们所有的刀具,包括有史以来最古老的刀具提供快速的重新磨削服务!
DiATOME质量保证
在交付之前,每把新的或重新磨过的DiATOME钻石刀都要经过广泛的测试。因此,DiATOME可以保证在整个切削刃上进行完美的切片(在相应的厚度范围内)。
DiATOME客户服务
在钻石刀的长期开发,制造和使用过程中获得的丰富经验使DiATOME能够提供独特的样品测试服务:
您发送给DiATOME任何性质的生物学或材料研究样本。
DiATOME执行切片测试,然后将网格上的超薄切片,表面样本以及结果的报告发送给您。
您可以放心,DiATOME会绝对谨慎地对待您的专有标本。
DiATOME Diamond Knives – Development, manufacturing and customer service since 1970
DiATOME's developments in this period:
ultra 45°- the diamond knife with a hydrophilic cutting edge, allowing high quality ultrathin sections of epoxi resin embedded samples
ultra 35°- the low angle diamond knife for reduced compression and better structure preservation
histo - the first diamond knife for cutting semithin sections for the observation in the optical microscope
cryo - the diamond knife for cutting in the cryo-ultramicrotome
Static Line Ionizer - for eliminating electrostatic charging
cryo immuno - the knife with a large diamond platform fascilitating pick-up of cryo sections from sucrose infiltrated samples (Tokuyasu)
cryo 25°- the low angle diamond knife for sectioning frozen hydrated samples (CEMOVIS)
ultra AFM and cryo AFM - the knives for generating absolutely smooth and flat surfaces of biological and technical samples for the observation in the AFM
ultra sonic - the oscillating diamond knife for eliminating compression and allowing best structure preservation
accessories - such as pick-up loops, special forceps, special knife boats, etc.
These developments were possible by the co-operation with you, our valued customers.
DiATOME is convinced that also in the future new developments are possible and that our knives may be adapted to the changing requirements.
Make use of our many years experience in perfecting our knives.
Characteristics of DiATOME Diamond Knives
DiATOME knives are compatible with all ultramicrotomes The boat is designed in such a manner that the water is horizontal when the clearance angle is set. This results in a stationary water surface and good reflection.
The shape of the boat offers you the advantage of an easy pick-up of the floating sections.
The surfaces of the DiATOME diamond knives are hydrophilic. This property allows an easy wetting of the cutting edge, even with a very low water level (important for sectioning Lowicryls and other hydrophilic embedding media, as well as for water sensitive samples).
The diamond is high vacuum brazed onto a metal shank which is securely screwed into the boat.
The cementing material seals boat and knife. It is hydrophilic and aids the easy wetting of the cutting edge.
Resharpening and Exchange Service
Resharpened DiATOME knives undergo the same stringent optical checking and sectioning test as new knives.
A diamond knife resharpened by DiATOME is the same high quality as a new one!
DiATOME let you choose: You may have your knife resharpened, or exchanged against a new knife at a slightly elevated price.
In the exchange price a type change is possible (ultra to cryo, 45° to 35°, small knives to large ones, etc).
DiATOME guarantees a fast resharpening service for all our knives including the oldest knives ever purchased!
DiATOME Quality Guarantee
Before delivery, each knife, new or resharpened, is subject to extensive testing. We can therefore guarantee perfect
sectioning (in the repective thickness range) over the entire cutting edge.
Should a knife not fulfil your high expectations, please kindly send it back with a short note of the problem.
DiATOME Customer Service
The great experience obtained during long years of development, manufacturing and use of diamond knives allows us to offer a unique sample testing service:
You send us biological or material research specimens of any nature.
We perform a sectioning test and send you the resulting ultrathin sections on grids, the surfaced sample, along with a report of how the results were obtained.
You may be assured that we treat your proprietary specimens with absolute discrection.
