Muromachi microwave fixation
The Muromachi Microwave Brain Fixation system can deactivate brain enzymes in less than 1 second.
Undesired post-mortem modifications in the biochemical composition of the brain can be dramatically reduced by Microwave Brain Fixation.
The Microwave Brain Fixation system is the fastest and most effective known method of halting brain chemical activity. It is commonly used prior to analysis of
Thanks to Patented Microwave focus applicators, microwaves are channlled and focused on the aimed area. Brain fixation occurs in 1 second; activity of degrading enzymes is blocked.

In neurochemical studies of the brain, it is of great importance to measure accurately neurochemical events in vivo.
However, it is difficult to perform reproducible measurement of these events because rapid post-mortem changes occur in the brain concentrations of metabolites and neurotransmitters.
With the NEW Microwave Brain Fixation System, the microwave beam stops all brain chemistry at the level present in the living subject, in less than 1 second.
Measuring brain chemistry in-vivo is possible!
