Precision ultramicrotome for ultrathin sections (10 nm–15 µm) with motorized stages and cryo capabilities.
The Leica Ultracut UCT is a precision ultramicrotome designed for producing ultrathin sections essential for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and other high-resolution imaging techniques. This instrument enables researchers to prepare sections ranging from 10 nanometres to 15 micrometres in thickness, facilitating detailed examination of specimen ultrastructure.
Key features include:
The Leica Ultracut UCT is widely utilised in fields such as materials science, cancer research, and biological sciences, where precise sample preparation is critical for electron microscopy analysis. It is commonly found in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and clinical environments.
Introduced in the early 2000s, the Leica Ultracut UCT has been a reliable tool in scientific research for over two decades. Its enduring presence underscores Leica Microsystems' commitment to innovation and quality in the realm of ultramicrotomy.
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.
