Description
Confidence is Vital
Deliver diagnostic confidence
When you’re preparing fresh tissue for a vital diagnosis, you need to know that your cryostat will reliably deliver quality sections. That’s why the Leica CM1860 has the precision to consistently cut thin sections and the reliability that means it’s ready whenever a patient needs your skills to provide an accurate diagnosis.
Safety is Vital
Reduce your exposure to infection and injury Cryomicrotomy requires handling un-fixed tissue and performing repetitive tasks. That’s why the Leica CM1860 helps protect against potential biohazardous exposures and provides ergonomic features that can reduce musculoskeletal disorders (MSD).
Efficiency is Vital
Create a Lean Histology™ laboratory Increase efficiency with a Leica cryostat and better utilize your existing resources. The Leica CM1860 will help improve the workflow and productivity of any high-throughput clinical laboratory.

Leica Biosystems
Microtome, CM1860
The Leica CM1860 UV was developed with an emphasis on diagnostic confidence, safety and ergonomics. The high-throughput cryostat creates diagnostic confidence by reliably producing quality sections that help provide an accurate diagnosis.
Staff near the cryostat is protected by the certified UVC disinfection, that efficiently reduces pathogen contamination, including SARS-CoV-2. The antimicrobial nano-silver coating, AgProtect, provides outstanding safety by reducing exposure to surface pathogens.
The unique premium blade holder adds to the personal protection and ergonomics with a designated finger guard, blade ejector and palm rest for brush technique users.
