Anatech Ltd Prefer Fixative 1 Gallon Bottle
Prefer Is Considerably Faster Than Formalin, And Will Produce Superior Results In A Conveniently Short Time. Small Biopsies Will Fix In 45-60 Minutes, Larger Ones In 1-2 Hours. General Surgical Specimens No Thicker Than 4 Mm Will Fix Adequately In 2-4 Hours. Allow Longer Time When Fixing Gross Specimens. Notice The Exquisite Detail In The Gastric Biopsy (Figure At Left, Gastric Biopsy Fixed 45 Minutes In Prefer). Basement Membranes And Cell Membranes Are Clearly Defined. Nuclear Patterns Are Good.
Polysciences, Inc. Spurr Low Viscosity Embedding Kit
Spurr Low Viscosity Embedding kit provides exceptional penetration in tissue, mineral, and dense structures. A low viscosity of 60cps allows easy penetration into a variety of difficult materials. May be used to prepare mineral specimens for polishing. The low viscosity of the Spurr formulation allows rapid infiltration into tissues, minerals and other dense structures. Facilitates embedments with high lipid contents or hard membranes or highly vacuolated parenchymatous tissues.
Electron Microscopy Sciences JB-4 Plus™ Solution A 500 ML
JB-4 Plus offers all of the same features as JB-4 except it produces less of an exothermic reaction than JB4 which is good for temperature sensitive tissues. J
Electron Microscopy Sciences Lowicryl K4M Kit
Lowicryl resins are highly cross-linked acrylate-based embedding resins, designed for use over a wide range of embedding conditions. These resins provide low viscosity at low temperatures. All of these resins are photopolymerized by long wavelength (360nm) ultraviolet light. Since the initiation of the polymerization is largely independent of temperatures, blocks may be polymerized at the same temperatures used for infiltration. The resin may also be chemically polymerized at 60 degree C. Polar (hydrophilic) usable to -35 C.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Araldite 6005 Kit
Also known as American Araldite. The blocks are slightly harder than those produced by Araldite 502.
*Please note that wherever DMP-30 is listed as the accelerator in our embedding media kits you have the option to use BDMA in place of it. BDMA is less viscous, has a longer shelf life, and offers better penetration.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Lowicryl HM23 Kit
Lowicryl resins are highly cross-linked acrylate-based embedding resins, designed for use over a wide range of embedding conditions. These resins provide low viscosity at low temperatures. All of these resins are photopolymerized by long wavelength (360nm) ultraviolet light. Since the initiation of the polymerization is largely independent of temperatures, blocks may be polymerized at the same temperatures used for infiltration. The resin may also be chemically polymerized at 60 degree C. Usable to -80 deg C.
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Rapid Immersion Freezer Environmental Chamber
The environmental chamber module can provide specific relative humidity and temperatures required for many types of samples for the EMS-002 Rapid Immersion Freezer.
Electron Microscopy Sciences BEEM Opaque Capsule Holder Size 3 Capsule
If microwaving or UV polymerizing of your embedding media these opaque BEEM capsule holders are perfect. Made from Polypropylene. All embedding capsules size 00 fit it.
Electron Microscopy Sciences BEEM Embedding Capsules, Size 3
These capsules, made from polyethylene, produce blocks with a 5.6 mm O.D. and a pyramid tip. Comes complete with a hinged cap.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Gelatin Capsule Size 00, Volume 0.95ml
Natural, hard gelatin capsules. To be used as an embedding mold for water miscible resins, or resins which need to be cured by transmitted light. Gelatin capsules dissolve or disintegrate within 5 minutes when immersed in a 0.5% HCl solution at 36-38 degree C, within 2 minutes in water at 37 degree C or in artificial gastric juice.
OAL: 23.3 mm
Diameter: 8.18 mm
Volume: 0.95 mL
Electron Microscopy Sciences BEEM Blocklock Flat Embedment, 20 Positions
Specimen blocks are safely stored in Blocklock storage modules, a component in the BEEM Specimen Storage System 2000. All Blocklocks can be inserted in a Plastic Protective Box or, by utilizing the adhesive feature, mounted in combination with other Blocklock modules on the BEEM mounting panel that fits in a standard " D-Type" 3-ring binder. Block snaps into cavities so it cannot be inadvertently dislodged. Number and letter identify each cavity. Measures 2-7⁄8"L x 2"W x 1/4"H (74 x 50 x 8mm)
Electron Microscopy Sciences Paramat Extra 10 KG
Paramat is the original British blend of paraffin wax and plastic polymers and it has been used in histology labs throughout the world for over 20 years. It has been found that when plastic polymers are added to the paraffin the elasticity of the final block is greater as compared with paraffin alone. As well the mixture offers improved tissue penetration, easier ribboning of sections, reduced tendency to crumble, and improved overall results with fibrous tissue. Faster penetration with small amount of dimethyl sulfoxide.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Paraplast X-Tra 1 KG
Melting point: 53-54°C
Handy pellet form melts rapidly. Melting Point 53-54 degree C. Cuts to 2 micron thickness with exceptional ribbon continuity. Extra compression resistance provides total support of tissues
