Electron Microscopy Sciences Bouin's Solution, 1L
Bouin's solution can be used as a fixation and a staining fluid. Bouin's fixative is excellent for use on biopsy specimens of the gastrointestinal tract. Tissue from the endocrine system are well fixed and many antibodies react well with tissue fixed in Bouin's. Bouin's solution may be used as a routine fixative or a staining solution, but should not be used as a preservative for tissue. Tissue cannot be held in Bouin's solution for extended periods. The maximum fixation time in this solution should be less than 48 hours and should be transferred to alcohol. Packaged in leak-proof histo-containers, prefilled and ready-to-use.The solution is formulated with Picric Acid saturated aqueous solution 75%, Formalin (40% aqueous formaldehyde) 25% and Glacial Acetic acid 5% in de-ionized water.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Paraformaldehyde 1% each Aqueous 500 ML
Paraformaldehyde fixatives are prepared fresh upon receipt of order to ensure maximum shelf life.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Formalin Prefilled HistoTainer, 30 ml
The HistoTainer is half filled with 10% Neutral Buffered Formalin as a fixative. These ready-to-use prefilled containers are timer saving and make your work more efficient.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Davidson's (Hartmann's) Fixative 4 LT
This is rapid fixative. Results with good nuclear detail and minimal formalin pigment. Hatmann's (Davidson's) Fixative is useful for preparing tumors, bone marrow, gynecologic specimen, fatty breast, medical biopsies. Fixation of small specimen is rapid. Exposure to the fixative should be limited to 24 hours (tissue may then be transferred to neutral buffered formalin or 70% alcohol for storage).
Based on the volume of 1125 ml solution, there is 2 part Formalin (35-39%), 3 part Ethanol, 1 part Glacial Acetic acid, and 3 part of tap water.

Electron Microscopy Sciences Mirsky's Fixative Ready-to-Use 2 LT
Saponin/Glyoxylate fixative is for use in immunohistological and immunological protocols. It contains no formaldehyde or glutaraldehyde giving it reduced toxicity and virtually no odor. Neutral, buffered, and isotonic (308 mOsmol). Additionally, Mirsky's Fixative does not contain toxic or hazardous buffers such as cacodylate or barbital.
Double reactive sites afford excellent cross-linking properties while maintaining sample enzyme activity. Samples processed in Mirsky's Fixative for light microscopy can subsequently be used in electron microscopy procedures.
