Synthetic Mountant is a toluene-based, medium-viscosity mounting medium that can be used as a conventional mounting medium.

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.

Coverplate is a plastic device that fits over a standard microscope slide allowing specimens to be immune-stained with a minimum amount of reagent. The Coverplate creates a capillary gap between itself and the slide, allowing for reagent to stay in place until the next reagent is dispensed. The Coverplate displaces reagent by gravity flow.

The Cytoblock system is designed to facilitate the preparation of paraffin-embedded cell suspensions, cell aggregates, and tissue fragments. The Cytoblock system can also be used to process tissue biopsies and fragments which are difficult or impossible to process using other techniques.

Tissue Capsule Pads otherwise known as biopsy sponges may be used in addition to the tissue cassette to hold tissue in place during processing.

Formal-Fixx is a variation of neutral buffered formalin with a differing buffering system. This fixative is designed especially for use with the Cytoblock processing gel. The phosphate-free buffering system prevents the formation of free formic acid, and its associated artifacts, formalin pigment. The osmolality of these fixatives allows them to be used not only for light microscopy but for electron microscopic studies as well. Zinc Formal-Fixx Concentrate is the same formulation as Formal-Fixx Concentrate but includes the mineral zinc to enhance the nuclear detail of the specimen.

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.

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.

Dehydrant Alcohol product lines are specifically designed for tissue processing and staining of histological and cytological specimens. The products are a clear, colorless blend of ethyl, isopropyl, and methyl alcohol that in some cases have trace amounts of other denatured materials. All Dehydrant Alcohol products are non-controlled substances and do not require record keeping. The formulations are readily miscible with water to form any desired grade of alcohol and can be used with all clearing reagents. The Dehydrant Alcohol line can be used with both open and closed tissue processors. Protective gloves should be worn and work should be performed in a ventilated area. Dehydrant Alcohol is a flammable product and must be stored in a flammable fire cabinet. The Dehydrant Alcohol product line can also be used for hydrating and dehydrating tissue sections during staining. They can be used with all special stains that require dehydration, as solvents for preparing special stains, and immunohistochemical procedures that are compatible with alcoholic dehydrants. The Dehydrant Alcohol product line can be substituted in place of any alcohol you are presently using for hematoxylin and eosin-y staining. They are compatible with all manual procedures and automatic stainers
