Epredia - 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.

Epredia - 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

Epredia - """Hematology stains are typically mixtures of several thiazin dyes in a methanol solvent. Ionic and non-ionic forces are involved in the binding of the dyes. The negatively charged phosphoric acid groups of DNA attract the purple polychromatic cationic dyes to the nuclei. The blue basophilic granules are stained by the polychromatic cationic dyes. Cationic cellular components, such as the erythrocytes and eosinophilic granules, are stained by the red and pink anionic dyes. The buffers used in the staining procedure liberate and activate dye ions allowing them to chemically bond with specific cellular components. When staining blood and bone marrow smears, the pH of the staining solution and/or buffer is a critical factor. The Wright, Wright-Giemsa, Giemsa, May-Grunwald and Jenner stains all rely on a separate buffer solution to control the pH of the reaction, whereas the buffered versions are referred to as “one-step” and have the buffering component already in the staining solution. There are pros and cons to each type of hematology stain although they all contain the thiazin dyes which control the coloration of the nuclear cell components. The single solutions with buffer included generally present more precipitate and the cellular detail is not defined as well as using separate stain and buffer solutions. This kit contains three 500ml bottles of Wright Giemsa stain, pH 6.8 Buffer and a Rinse solution intended to be used as a system per the instructions for use."""

Epredia - 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.
