Electron Microscopy Sciences Quetol 651/NSA Embedding Kit
A water miscible epoxy resin used for both light and electron microscopy. Its low viscosity permits easy infiltration and embedding, and yields light-colored blocks. Kit consists of: 225 ml Quetol 651, 450 ml NMA , 450 ml NSA, 50 ml
Electron Microscopy Sciences Technovit 8100 Embedding Kit
Technovit Glycol Methacrylate embedding kits developed by Kulzer in Germany are the most convenient to use and offers the best embedding results. Kits give better results offering improved morphology and allows for 1 micron serial sectioning. Polymerization temperature never exceeds 40 degree C, which makes either kit a potential choice for enzyme histochemistry.
The initiator is prepackaged, eliminating messy handling of dry components, and by eliminating aromatic amines from the formation, the components are significantly less toxic. The consistent high quality of raw materials used to make the resin allows for a permanent clear colorless block and, most important, reproducible results
Electron Microscopy Sciences Technovit 3040 Mounting Medium Kit
Technovit 3040 yellow is a fast curing methyl methacrylate-based resin, whose chemical composition warrants a firm, durable bond between Technovit and the specimen.
Technovit 3040 consists of two components–powder and liquid–allowing simple mixing, easy adherance to the specimen, and fast curing. For fixing the mount, a high viscous consistency is required(i.e. a mixing ratio of approximately 2-3 parts per volume powder: 1 part per volume liquid) has proven to be the most advantageous.
Electron Microscopy Sciences LR White Resin, Hard, Uncatalyzed 500 ML
A very low viscosity (8cps), non-toxic resin, suitable for both Light and Electron Microscopy. LR White is a polar monomer polyhydroxylated acromatic acrylic resin. It can be cured by heat or by UV light. Sections of polymerized LR White resin are hydrophilic. This character allows immuno-cytochemistry reagents to easily penetrate into the sections and etching of the sections is not necessary (etching sections will effect delicate tissue antigens). LR White sections also show minimal non-specific staining. Its low viscosity makes it ideal for infiltrating decalcified bone and teeth as well as plant tissues.
Cayman Chemical AOCS MedIM nd LNgchaIn F 50mg
A mixture of medium- and long-chain fatty acid methyl esters; contains seven saturated and mono- and poly-unsaturated fatty acid methyl esters; intended for use as a reference standard for the detection of fatty acids in coconut, palm kernel, babassu, and ouri-ouri oils, among others, by GC-MS; supplied in an amber ampule in which the headspace has been purged with nitrogen/argon to prevent lipid oxidation
Perkin Elmer US LLC Adhesive Film Mount - Qty. 100
PerkinElmer offers a variety of sample holders and film mounts that are convenient, easy-to-use, and economical.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Citifluor™ Mountant Solution AF87, Glycerol Free, Non Hardening 25 ML
Citifluor mounting medium for immunofluorescence is designed to reduce the fading of the fluorescence of dyes used for labeling biological specimens. In the technique of fluorescence microscopy, the fluorescence is stimulated by high intensity UV and/or visible light. Absorption of the light populates an excited state of the dye (usually a singlet state) and this leads to fluorescence. However, the excited state of the dye may undergo chemical reaction, which leads to destruction as evidenced by the fading of the fluorescence and consequent loss of the image. Immersion oil having a refractive index of 1.52 and contains an antifadent.
Material: Glycerol Free
Type: Non Hardening

Newcomer Supply Chrome Alum-Gelatin Adhesive, 250 ml
For water bath use to add extra adhesion of the tissue section to the glass slide. Newcomer Supply Chrome Alum-Gelatin Adhesive provides a blended solution of chrome alum and high-quality gelatin that promotes a strong adhesive bond between tissue sections and microscopic slides. Chrome Alum-Gelatin Adhesive can be used as an additive to water baths or as subbed slide/direct slide coating application to prevent or reduce the loss of tissue sections due to the nature of the tissue, section thickness or harsh staining treatments, while leaving minimal or no background staining. Shelf Life is 1 year from date of manufacture. Store at 15-30°C.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Sudan IV Staining Solution 500 ML
Used in Herxheimer's Technique for staining fat and cholesterol. References: Clark, G., Ed.: Staining Procedures; 3rd Ed.; Baltimore: Williams and Wilkins Co., c. 1973, p. 143 Conn's, H.J.: Biological Stains; 8th Ed., Baltimore: Williams and Wilkins Co., c. 1969, p.100
Electron Microscopy Sciences EUKITT UV Mounting Medium 100 ML
EUKITT UV mounting medium has all the well-known beneficial properties of the EUKITT mountants. EUKITT UV does not contain any solvents, therefore only 50% of the usual amount is needed compared to conventional systems. While using EUKITT UV almost no shrinkage can be detected.
The mounting medium may be used on tissue sections in non-polar solvents such as xylene or xylene substitutes as well as directly on sections in pure alcohols (EtOH, iPrOH, etc.).
The viscosity is very user-friendly. After being applied to the tissue, the cover glass can be placed as usual. Subsequently, a transfer break of at least 120 sec. is maintained prior to irradiation in order to ensure an ideal penetration into the tissue.
When using the specially tuned LED CCFL UV curing machine EUKITT UV cures in just 30 seconds.
