About MORPHISTO
MORPHISTO is a laboratory service provider for histology and laboratory chemicals, combining production with services. The offering includes the production of thin sections and ground thin sections from medicine, biology, materials science and geosciences as well as the production of ready-to-use chemicals such as staining and fixing solutions, buffers and etchants for a wide range of laboratory applications. As a complete preparation service, the entire chain from sampling to microscopy and diagnostic reporting is covered, including immunohistochemistry, cutting and grinding thin-section technology for hard samples such as bone, teeth, stents and metal or ceramic implants, as well as digital pathology with scanning systems for brightfield and fluorescence imaging. Further services include materials testing and metallography, food histology for quality inspection, teaching specimens for universities and schools, contract research and practice-oriented courses. Chemicals, specimens and controls are distributed via the company's own webshop; delivery is carried out worldwide through local distributors and direct orders.
