Electron Microscopy Sciences ERL 4221 Cycloaliphatic Epoxide Resin 225 ML
Due to the supply shortage of ERL-4206 ERL-4221 has now been specially formulated to replace it. ERL 4206 is one of the main components of the low viscosity (Dr. Spur) embedding resin kit. ERL-4221 is a Cycloaliphatic Epoxide Resin.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Chien Universal-Mold
A two-directional mold that allows for single embedded specimens to be sectioned both laterally and transversely . Tissues to be embedded are accurately trimmed and placed so that both sides of the tissue are against both edges of the cavity tip. See Chien, K., et al. (1985) Proc. Ann. EMSA Meeting 43, 460
Electron Microscopy Sciences Cold Mounting Phenolic Ring Mold, 0.25"
Impregnated phenolic, ¾" high.

Alkali Scientific ASI™ Biopsy Sponge Pads for Cassettes, Foam, Blue, 30.2mm x 25.4mm x 2mm, 1000/Pack, 10,000/Case
These blue biopsy pads are expertly crafted from uniform, polyester reticulated open-cell foam, providing an ideal solution for secure and efficient biopsy processing. The open-cell structure allows fluids to flow freely and thoroughly around the tissue, ensuring safe and complete specimen preservation while minimizing handling risks. The thin 2mm design is thoughtfully engineered to reduce pressure on unfixed specimens, effectively lowering the likelihood of tissue sticking to the pads during embedding. This gentle yet secure approach helps maintain specimen integrity, making these pads a trusted choice for precise histological work. Proudly made in the USA, these biopsy pads ensure the proper orientation of small biopsy tissues, aiding in accurate diagnostic results. Whether for high-throughput labs or small-scale operations, these pads deliver reliable performance and enhanced efficiency.
Leica Biosystems D-Formalizer Powder - Aldehyde Neutralizer for Spent Formalin, 10 x 680 g
D-Formalizer is a powdered aldehyde neutralizer for histology laboratories that treats spent formalin and 4% glutaraldehyde, producing a clear, non-odorous solution suitable for disposal. It simplifies chemical waste handling by neutralizing aldehydes and minimizing solids that can clog drains; one packet is formulated to treat approximately one gallon of used fixative.
- Neutralizes spent formalin and 4% glutaraldehyde
- Produces a clear solution free of solids and aldehyde odor
- Simplifies hazardous waste handling and disposal
- Single-packet dosing treats about one gallon of used fixative
- Powdered form mixes easily for quick treatment
Electron Microscopy Sciences Easy-Molds™ for size 00 Capsules, 8 mm diameter
A newly designed mold which is convenient and offers better embedments. This tray-and-mold in one unit offers a unique specimen block that no other mold can. Each tray contains 2x10 block molds and measures 87x66 mm. Size 8mm diameter corresponds to capsule size "00" and forms a block face of 3mm.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Mold for Cell Culture
This mold is designed primarily for embedding cell culture specimens grown either directly on the bottom of a dish or on the filter when cross sections of the cells are needed. Cells grown on petri dishes are cut into strips just before the propylene oxide dehydration step; when Propylene Oxide is added, the strips lift right off the bottom. When the strips are ready for embedment, they are rolled on an applicator stick into a wad and gently lowered into the well (the strips should not float).
Advatages
Many cells can be examined in cross section.
There is no need for trimming.
The curved side makes the tip very strong in spite of its thinness.
Easy detection of a strip of cells.
The label is placed on the round part so as not to interfere with the specimen.
24 cavities.
Ted Pella Inc PELCO FLAT EMBEDDING MOLDS
Alphanumeric self-impression cavities, pretrimmed end. available in blue, white, or translucent silicone rubber. Maximum temperature: 218a Deg. C (425a Deg. F). all PELCOa Silicone Rubber Molds are made from the highest quality silicone rubber available. With care they will last a long time. after polymerization in a 60a Deg. C oven, let molds cool before removing blocks. This precaution will increase the lifespan of the mold. Using silicone rubber with Spurr's Resin will significantly reduce the lifespan of the molds.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Molding Cup Tray, 5 mm height
These polyethylene trays are ideal for casting specimen blocks embedded with JB-4 or equivalents and are used with our block holders and chucks shown above.
Size: 6 x 8 mm
Height: 5 mm
Electron Microscopy Sciences Crystalbond™ 590 Adhesive Stick, Brown 225 GR
A temporary adhesive. These wash away adhesives are used as a temporary bond for holding delicate crystals, metallurgical specimens, glass components, and ceramic substrates for dicing, slicing, drilling and polishing. These materials adhere readily to metals, glass, ceramic and then can be washed after machining away using various solvents. For precise high purity work, offers maximum adhesion to subminiature parts.
Color: Brown
Softening: 257°F (125°C)
Flow point: 302°F (150°C)
Viscosity: 9,000 cps
Electron Microscopy Sciences Thompson Monolayer Embedding Mold
This mold used for embedding mammalian cells in monolayer culture in preparation of sectioning for light or electron microscopy. Tissue culture monolayer embedding molds eliminate the need for traditional BEEM capsules. The improved molds can be used to transfer the majority of cells from the entire surface of a cover slip to avoid losses of large amounts of cellular information occurring only randomly. In addition, other problems such as surface blemishes caused by air entrapment associated with BEEM capsules are eliminated.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Capsule Mold Type C, 12 Cavities
Our molds are made from the strongest possible silicone rubber providing extremely high tear resistance. The molds are are reusable. Type C has 12 cavities cylindrical shapes, 8mm diameter 16mm height, flat tip.
Leica Biosystems PARAFREE DISPOSABLE BASE MOLD
Disposable Base Molds have been designed to be compatible with any currently available cassette. The orientation of the specimen is made easier due to the transparency of the mold, while its rounded corners allow for easy block removal and paraffin ribbon continuity. Built up side walls reduce risk of paraffin seepage during embedding. Available in boxes of 400 or cases of 1600.
