Product description

Leica 16 cm rigid microtome knife, freshly sharpened for precise histology and pathology tissue sectioning.

The Leica 16 cm/d Rigid Knife Mikrotommesser is a precision microtome blade designed for consistent and clean tissue sectioning in histology and pathology laboratories. Manufactured from high-grade steel, this rigid microtome knife measures 16 cm in length and delivers durable, stable performance for routine and research applications. Its freshly sharpened edge ensures optimal cutting quality, making it essential equipment for accurate preparation of tissue specimens.

Compatible with Leica microtomes and other systems, this microtome knife supports workflows in biomedical engineering, molecular diagnostics, and biotechnology research, including bioprocessing and molecular cloning. Its rigid design enables repeated sharpening and long-term use, ideal for laboratories requiring reliable instruments for biopharmaceutical production pipelines and synthetic biology studies.

Key technical features:

  • Length: 16 cm rigid blade for standard Leica microtomes
  • Material: High-quality steel for precision cutting integrity
  • Freshly sharpened: ready to use with consistent section thickness
  • Application: Histology, pathology, tissue preparation for microscopy
  • Compatible with Leica and comparable microtomes
  • Durable construction suited for high-throughput laboratory environments

This microtome knife is widely used in clinical diagnostics and research fields involving live-cell imaging sample prep, fluorescence analysis workflows, and routine histological staining protocols. Its robust design ensures precise sectioning, critical in biomanufacturing and gene editing research settings that require reproducible tissue slices.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
