description

An apparatus for direct measurement of the thickness of tissue slices and muscle strips is described. Micrometer callipers are used, the proper adjustment of which is indicated by the sudden scale deflection of an ohmmeter. In comparison with the method of calculation based on a measurement of the area of the slice, this technique is time-saving and the results are more accurate and reproducible.
