Info
Instructions for use for LYNXERA® brand microtome blade models
Manufacturer:
Lutz GmbH & Co. KG, Piepersberg 20, 42653 Solingen, Germany
We are a German blade manufacturer and, with more than 100 years of expertise, produce blades for the highest cutting requirements.
Intended use:
The microtome blades from LUTZ in Solingen are used as cutting tools in microtomes or cryostats to produce thin-section samples in preparation for histological examinations. They are therefore cutting-tool accessories for medical devices and are subject to, and comply with, EU regulations for in vitro diagnostics (IVD).
Instructions for use:
Blades are cutting tools and have a sharp edge. Please handle the blades—as with other cutting tools—with appropriate care. The blade dispenser provides the blades individually by operating the slider.
The sequence of pictograms shows you how to remove the blade.
Insert the blades carefully into the microtome and avoid contact between the cutting edge and components of the microtome. We recommend using hand and eye protection when using the blades. However, this is not mandatory. Act with care—as you would with other cutting tools. Please ensure the blade dispenser is stored in a dry place before and during use.
Disposal instructions:
The blades are still sharp even after use. Please dispose of the blades properly in the “Used Blades” disposal container on the underside of the dispenser or in a suitable sharps container available in your laboratory equipment.
The sequence of pictograms shows you the process of disposing of blades in the “Used Blades” container.
