The user interface on this new vibrating tissue slicer from Campden Instruments (which replaces the NVSL\/NVSLM Vibroslice from Integraslice) lets you program a wide range of parameters, including the vibration frequency and amplitude. The fine control of the brain tissue slicer blade's advance is controllable, and you can set the start and stop position of blade travel. The control box is even on umbilical cord, making it ideal for operations in an isolated environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eYou can use the brain slicer in fully manual or the semi-automated \"Slice window\" mode, which automatically remembers the start and finish position of the slice.
