The blades and knifes consumables are for use with microtomes and cryostats. Microtomes and cryostats are devices used to produce consistent thickness slices of tissue samples, they are then mounted on glass slides, stained and typically examined by microscopy. Microtomes for light microscopy typically use disposable blades, to maintain the quality of the cut and thus the section quality. Therefore they must be changed regularly. The frequency of changing depends on the number of sections cut, hardness of the tissue and appropriate use.

Clear-Rite, Citrus Clearing Solvent, Xylene Substitute, Xylene, and Toluene are a group of solvents known to act as clearing reagents in the histology laboratory for tissue processing and staining. These clearing reagents are used to “clear” tissue or make it permeable to paraffin in tissue processing. In staining, Clearants are used after alcohol which dehydrates the tissue to enable the slide to be cover slipped with a resinous mounting media.

The Fast Flex Tissue Processing System was designed to accommodate a wide range of tissue processing demands. These reagents, when used together with the STP 420ES or Pathcentre tissue processors, will significantly reduce tissue processing times and produce very high-quality results. The Fast Flex Tissue Processing System provides optimal tissue processing and staining results based on the patented rotational technology in the main chamber of the STP 420ES and the chemically enhanced Fast Flex reagents. The Fast Flex Tissue Processing System also produces excellent tissue and staining results when used with the Pathcentre tissue processor. Tissue/chemical interactions, reactions, and diffusion rates are accelerated, and depending upon tissue thickness, fatty tissue such as breast, bowel, and lymph node process very efficiently within this system. Our experience has additionally shown that bloody tissues also process well, especially when Holding Solution is utilized in the grossing room. Traditional hematoxylin and eosin staining demonstrates well-delineated nuclear chromatin, as well as superb cytoplasmic contrast.

The TPX Sample Chamber is a reusable sample chamber used in conjunction with a closure cap, Cytoclip and 2-hole disposable filter card (Brown) and (White). The Cytoclip is used to mount the Cytofunnel to the Cytospin™ Cytocentrifuge. The filter cards are designed with two cut-outs for easy insertion with the TPX chamber although only one deposition area is visualized. TPX chambers are reusable and autoclavable.

Cassettes are designed to contain incised tissue safely and securely for tissue processing, embedding, and sectioning. The cassettes are made of an acetyl copolymer designed to be solvent resistant during the normal tissue processing protocol. Specimen security can only be provided when Cassettes are used with approved and tested lids. Use of non-approved lids may lead to lid detachment during tissue processing. All cassettes with the exception of the Thinline and Fine Pore Cassette measure (H) 42.5mm, (W) 28.5mm, (D) 6.0mm. They are available in a range of colors. Differing in pore size and shape, there are three types available: Embedding, Biopsy, and Slotted. The choice of pore size is based on tissue type, size, and processing capabilities. The Histoscreen cassette utilizes a nylon mesh filter screen in the place of the typical pore sizes to be utilized for small, friable tissue that might escape the typical pore configurations during tissue processing. The Thinline and Fine Pore Cassettes have intermediate pore sizes between the Histoscreen and the traditional cassettes offering an injection moulded version with smaller pore size. Different coloured cassettes may be used to identify patient or tissue type.

PapSpin™ Collection Fluid is used for the cytological fixation of gynecological samples. The collection fluid may be used independently or in conjunction with the EZ Megafunnels and Megafunnel cytoslides as found in the PapSpin™ Collection Fluid Kit.

The Paraffin line is specially designed for tissue processing and embedding of histological and cytological specimens. The product is a white solid at room temperature and a clear, liquid when molten. The paraffin can be used with both open and closed tissue processors. It is also compatible with all embedding centers and manual embedding techniques. Paraffin is used in tissue processing during the infiltration steps. Melting points and polymer content differ between formulations. Choosing which type of paraffin may depend on the tissue density or personal preference of the histotechnician. Softer kinds of paraffin with less polymer tend to infiltrate tissue slightly quicker during processing but yield a softer block during embedding. Softer kinds of paraffin better lend themselves to thicker sections during microtomy. Harder kinds of paraffin with a higher polymer content usually take a little more time to infiltrate the tissue during processing but yield harder blocks that allow thinner sectioning during microtomy. Harder tissue specimens are better supported with a harder paraffin block.

Cassettes are designed to contain incised tissue safely and securely for tissue processing, embedding, and sectioning. The cassettes are made of an acetyl copolymer designed to be solvent resistant during the normal tissue processing protocol. Specimen security can only be provided when Cassettes are used with approved and tested lids. Use of non-approved lids may lead to lid detachment during tissue processing. All cassettes with the exception of the Thinline and Fine Pore Cassette measure (H) 42.5mm, (W) 28.5mm, (D) 6.0mm. They are available in a range of colors. Differing in pore size and shape, there are three types available: Embedding, Biopsy, and Slotted. The choice of pore size is based on tissue type, size, and processing capabilities. The Histoscreen cassette utilizes a nylon mesh filter screen in the place of the typical pore sizes to be utilized for small, friable tissue that might escape the typical pore configurations during tissue processing. The Thinline and Fine Pore Cassettes have intermediate pore sizes between the Histoscreen and the traditional cassettes offering an injection moulded version with smaller pore size. Different coloured cassettes may be used to identify patient or tissue type.

Fixation is vital in the stabilization and maintenance of the existing form and structure of all cellular constituents. The fixative, when applied, coats, and protects cells with a water-soluble film. This film, derived from resin, coats cell preparations to preserve nuclear detail for microscopic examination and diagnosis.
