Ultramicrotome with vibration isolation and blade-making system for ultrathin TEM specimen sectioning.
The Leica UCT 125 is a precision ultramicrotome designed for preparing ultrathin sections essential in Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) sample workflows. Equipped with a vibration isolation table and an integrated blade-making machine, it supports consistent cutting of ultrathin sections with thicknesses ranging from *60 to 100 nanometers* and widths from *0.5 to 3 mm*. Compatible with both glass and diamond blades, the instrument enables smooth, mirror-finish surfaces on epoxy-mounted specimens, which is critical for high-resolution imaging in TEM and secondary electron imaging in Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). This ultramicrotome is crucial in biotechnology and molecular diagnostics for sample preparation steps in ultrastructural analysis, bioprocessing research, and synthetic biology applications requiring nanometer-scale sectioning accuracy. The inclusion of blade manufacturing accessories and comprehensive user manual facilitates reproducible, high-precision sectioning, widely adopted in neuroimaging, biomedical engineering, and biomanufacturing pipelines.
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.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
