A cryomicrotome is an instrument used to obtain thin slices of frozen tissue from biological samples. If purchased, this machine will be used by three separate labs within the Department of Biology, to section nervous system tissue from newt and pond snail, as well as bone from salamander. These tissue samples will be used for immunostaining of cloned retinoid receptors and chemokine receptors involved in retinoid signaling (newt and snail) as well as for studies of bone growth in salamanders.

冷冻切片机是一种用于从生物样品中获取冷冻组织薄片的仪器。如果购买，这台机器将被生物系内的三个独立实验室使用，从蝾螈和池塘蜗牛中切割神经系统组织，以及蝾螈的骨头。这些组织样本将用于克隆类维生素A受体和参与类维生素A信号传导的趋化因子受体（蝾螈和蜗牛）的免疫染色，以及蝾螈骨骼生长的研究。
