microtomen.

Brit.

/ˈmʌɪkrə(ʊ)təʊm/, U.S.

/ˈmaɪkroʊˌtoʊm/,

/ˈmaɪkrəˌtoʊm/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: micro- comb. form, -tome comb. form.

Etymology: < micro- comb. form + -tome comb. form, after French microtome ( C. Chevalier Des microscopes et leur usage (1839 ); in quot. 1856 following H. Strauss-Durckheim Traité pratique et théorique d'anatomie comparative (1842) I. ii. 152).

Biology and Medicine.

Originally: †an instrument for microdissection, resembling tiny shears (obsolete). In later use: any of various instruments used to cut thin sections for microscopy, typically consisting of a sample holder, a fixed blade, and a mechanism for controlling the thickness and angle of cutting.
