METHOD AND DEVICES FOR THE CROSS-REFERENCING OF IDENTIFICATION OF OBJECT SUPPORTS FOR MICROTOMISED ANALYTICAL SAMPLES AND FOR THE GENERATION OF SAID IDENTIFICATION

摘要

The invention relates to a method and devices for the cross-referencing of identification (1) of object supports (2), for microtomised analytical samples still to be mounted thereon, with identification information (3) for a support (4) of a tissue sample (5) which is not yet microtomised. The conventional problem of cross-referencing is improved in a simple manner, whereby the identification information (3) for the support (4) is automatically generated during the very allocation in the microtome (6) and an identification (1), corresponding thereto, is automatically transferred to at least one object support (2) and that finally said object support (2), provided with the identification (1) is given for the application of the microtomised tissue sample at the moment when a microtomised tissue sample must be applied to an object support (2).
