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 Embedding Mold, Dykstra
EMS Embedding Mold is a new mold designed with Michael J. Dykstra Ph.D. from North Carolina State University Department of Veterinary Medicine. This Mold produces blocks of the best dimension to be held securely by Reichert/Leica Ultracut stepped microtome chucks. There are 24 cavities and the depth of each cavity is 4 mm which will prevent breakage of the blocks during razor blade trimming. Mold Measurements: 3 3/8" x 3" (85 x 77 mm. Cavity Measurements: 15 mmx 7 mm x 4 mm deep

Electron Microscopy Sciences SupaMega Stainless Steel Slim Base Mold, 60 x 45 x 8 mm, 8 mm height
The SupaMega range of stainless steel base molds have extra deep side walls allowing wax to be decanted into the cassettes during embedding without the risk of the usual leakage of wax. The smaller faced mold also saves wax on medium sized blocks too large to fit into standard cassettes negating the use of full size molds.
Size: 60 x 45 mm
Height: 8 mm

Electron Microscopy Sciences Easy-Load Cover for Biopsy Cassettes, Green
One-piece disposable plastic, it can be opened and closed as often as necessary and it always relocks securely without danger of specimen loss.
Color: Green
Electron Microscopy Sciences 25 mmx2 mm Foam Pads
A cellular polyester blue foam that has uniform air pockets throughout the pad for optimal fluid flow. It prevents either small or fragmented tissue specimens from being lost. To use simple place small samples or specimen fragments between the two pads and place the specimen in a cassette or capsule.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Micro-Bed Embedding Resin 500 ML
Micro-Bed resin is a water-soluble resin, a mixture of acrylate and polyester resins. Universal embedding medium that may be used for light or electron microscopy.
Due to its non-crosslinking characteristics, its hydrophilic nature, and roughness of its section surface, it is excellent in preserving tissue structure, offers good results in immunolabeling, and stands up well to conventional stains.
In LM, tissues were stained with conventional histological stains (e.g.,hematoxylin-eosin) and embedded in Micro-Bed: results comparable with those provided on paraffin embedded tissues. Polychrome silver-based and cytochemical stains (e.g.,PAS) were also feasible. In TEM, images as good as those obtained with similar acrylic resins, (e.g., Lowicryl K4M), were obtained.
Supplied as a single component-ready to use pre-mixed resin. Micro-Bed can be polymerized by heat (55-65°C) or UV (365nm) at -10 to 20°C for 72 hours.
Electron Microscopy Sciences 5 Block Embedding Mold-2 Part- 8 mm Body with 2 mm Cylindrical
The block embedding mold features an innovative new design based on the widely used Ø8 mm size embedding mold. The unique two part design allows for easy removal of resin blocks, as well as incorporating many other advantages over currently available embedding products.
It has separate base and tube sections that clip together to form the familiar capsule shape. It allows for easy removal of resin blocks achieved by simply pulling the mold apart by hand.
It can produce blocks up to 20 mm in length with no razor blades or capsule presses are required. Each mold can be clipped to other molds, allowing for the creation of trays of desired size. Each cavity is numbered 1 < 5, whilst the end support stands have designated areas for writing indexing numbers or comments.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Embedding Cassette Disposable Base Mold, 30 x 24 mm, 5 mm height
Clear plastic. Eliminates use of cleaning solvents and release compounds.
Footprint: 30 x 24 mm
Height: 5 mm
Newcomer Supply Biopsy Wraps, Biosavers 2" x 3", White, 1,000 sheets/box
