Microtome refers to a specialized precision tissue sectioning instrument used for cutting uniformly thin slices of a biological sample obtained from plants and animals. It consists of specialized blades manufactured using metal, glass or diamond for different specimens and sample thicknesses. Some of the commonly used microtomes include hand-held, rotational, vibrating, sledge, cryostat and ultramicrotome. They consist of a block holder, knife clamps, block adjustments, thickness gauge and an operating handle. Microtomes also provide numerous cutting modes, such as single, interval, multi and continuous high throughput serial sectioning. They aid in cytological, histological and pathological studies and are widely used for accurate diagnosis of chronic diseases.

Microtome Market Trends:
The increasing prevalence of oncological disorders across the globe is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. Semi- and fully automatic microtomes are commonly used to extract minor sections of the tissues and detect the presence of tumor cells in the body. Analysis of these biopsy tissues assists the pathologists in determining the type of cancer and its stage and degree of spread. Moreover, rising health consciousness among the masses and increasing awareness regarding the benefits of early diagnosis of such ailments are providing a thrust to the market growth. Additionally, various product innovations, such as the development of laser microtomes that use photons and laser beams to cut through the tissues, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. They provide precise and consistent high-quality sectioning and do not alter the biological properties of the tissues. Other factors, including the rising geriatric population, which is more susceptible to chronic disorders, along with extensive improvements in the healthcare infrastructure, especially in the developing economies, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
