Parablocks ASP are pre-formed blocks of paraffin that are provided in plastic molds. The preformed blocks fit easily into the paraffin chamber of the ASP Tissue Processor. Once the chamber is filled with the solid paraffin blocks, there is no need for the technician to return later to determine the paraffin volume and add additional paraffin. Reduced risks since solid blocks eliminate pellet spills and the need to transfer molten paraffin.

Beveled Edge Slides feature beveled edges and corners that make for easier handling. The 25 mm x 75mm slides are washed and carefully inspected to ensure quality.

These slides are 3”x 1” White Snowcoat slides with two circles, each having a diameter of 1/2”. These circles match up with the Cytology Funnel, which is to be used for preparation of non-gyn cytology specimens.

X-tra Slides have a positive charged surface which helps to bond tissue sections and cytology preparations. X‐tra slides are used for demanding H&E procedures that require tissue adhesion. Size: 1” x 3” x .04” (unless otherwise noted) Hydrophobic surface with approximately 90-degree contact angle. Recommended uses include special stains, IHC, ISH, cryosectioning, and cytology.

Q: Paraplast High Melt Paraffin

Paraplast High Melt embedding media is made from a combination of highly purified wax and plastic polymers of regulated molecular weights. Produced by the same manufacturers of Paraplast, Paraplast High Melt can be used for infiltration or embedding and offers reproducibility while sectioning.

Q: EM-400 Embedding Medium Paraffin

EM-400 Embedding Medium is a blend of purified paraffin with synthetic polymers that enables sectioning with minimal compression. The medium can facilitate routine sectioning at 1-2 microns on a rotary microtome. Its low melting point (56-57º C, water bath temperature 37-42º C) reduces potential artifactual distortion in tissues heated above 60º during paraffin impregnation. EM-400 will remain stable even at elevated temperatures. It is available in a case of 10 x 2 lb (0.91 kg) lightweight bags to facilitate handling.

Q: PELORIS Parablocks Paraffin

PELORIS Parablocks are pre-formed blocks of paraffin that are provided in plastic molds. The preformed blocks fit easily into the paraffin chamber of the PELORIS Tissue Processor and will melt faster than pellets or flakes. Once the chamber is filled with the solid paraffin blocks, there is no need for the technician to return later to determine the paraffin volume and add additional paraffin. Reduced risks since solid blocks eliminate pellet spills and the need to transfer molten paraffin. HistoCore PELORIS 3 Premium Tissue Processing System Premium Tissue Processing Leica PELORIS II

Q: Specialty Microscope Slides

The VCE has two vertical stripes dissecting the slide into three sections allowing vaginal, cervical and endocervical sampling on the same slide. The fully frosted side is completely frosted on one side and is used for body fluid specimens.

Q: X-tra Clipped Corner Slides

X-tra Clipped Corner Slides are clipped at 45° angles to help reduce glass breakage and fragmentation when loaded into slide printers. These slides have been optimized for use with the Leica and Sakura Finetek printer. Hydrophobic surface with approximately 90-degree contact angle. Recommended uses include special stains, IHC, ISH, cryosectioning, and cytology.
