Adult Squirrel Monkey Brain Slicer Matrix BSSMNKS003-1

The Stainless Steel Zivic Adult Squirrel Monkey Brain Slicer Matrix with 3.0 mm CORONAL section slice intervals aids research scientists in the dissection of discrete regions of the adult squirrel monkey brain. With its anatomically proportioned dimensions and slice channels, this squirrel monkey brain matrix allows an investigator or research scientist to consistently slice coronal sections of a squirrel monkey brain, enabling precise blocking prior to microtome sectioning or the removal of small, reproducible brain regions (i.e. discrete terminal fields or nuclei) for biochemical analysis, such as the determination of neurotransmitter and metabolite concentrations. Individual brain areas may be either dissected or micro-punched from the slices formed.

KEY FEATURES:

- Slice intervals spaced 3.0mm apart

- Use this matrix to section the mouse brain into CORONAL slices with thicknesses in increments of 3.0mm

- Designed to accommodate for unique anatomical features of the squirrel monkey brain

- Include a central sagittal slice channel, allowing the brain to be split into left and right hemispheres

- Use with fresh or preserved brain tissue

- Autoclavable and designed for long-term use

- Matrices of any given type are identical to insure reproducible sections

- Comes ready to use, with 10 single edge razor blades provided at no additional cost

- Made from high-grade stainless steel

USES INCLUDE:

- Dissection / Blocking of the squirrel monkey brain into coronal sections (or left and right hemispheres)

- Sectioning the squirrel monkey brain prior to or post staining with agents included TTC or X-Gal-stain

- Repeated isolation of squirrel monkey brain regions for further analysis or slide preparation

- Tissue preparation
