Identification Tabs
Embedding Molds - Identification Tabs ........................................
These specimen identification tabs can be placed in any paraffin embedding mold, but they were
designed for our Peel-A-Way ® mold system. Each individual tab measures 1cm high & 2cm in length.
Each book contains 8,000 tabs.
Multispecimens - Flat
Embedding Molds - Multispecimen, Flat - Opaque ..............................
This mold contains 20 shaped cavities plus 8 oblong cavities 3.5mm wide in three
different lengths. Mold size 113mm x17mm. Use with epoxy based resins, Araldite
resins, Embed-It , Spurr Low Viscosity Embedding Kit and Ultra Low Viscosity
Embedding Kit.
Peel-A-Way ® Molds
Constructed of polyethylene, our Peel-A-Way ® molds are disposable molds that are used with
Gold Standard Mico-Cut Paraffins, PolyFin ® Paraffin and GemCut ® Paraffins and other routinely
used paraffin products. These molds can be used with Tissue Freezing Media for orientation of
specimens requiring exact alignment and frozen in liquid nitrogen with or without isopentane, dry
ice or on a freezing stage in the cryostat. The molds will easily Peel-A-Way ® leaving a formed block
with a flat surface that is ready to section, no trimming necessary. The completed blocks can be
easily attached to a chuck for sectioning. Peel-A-Way ® molds can be used with GMA, MMA and
epoxy resins by excluding all air during block polymerization. The mold must be covered and airtight
for complete polymerization. Use with Identification Tabs (Cat. #19800A) to readily identify
blocks after embedding and during storage.
Peel-A-Way ® Disposable Embedding Molds Sampler Pack ........................
Easy to use and saves time - Unique design will Peel-A-Way from a solidified
embedded block. There is no need for trimming. Can be used with Micro-Cut paraffin,
JB-4 ® , GMA, Osteo-Bed, Osteo-Bed Plus and MMA embedding resins. Especially
useful for frozen sections where orientation is critical and defrosting during
transfer to cryostat chuck is an issue. Creates a buffer to allow the specimen to
freeze to the chuck without defrosting the base. Technical Data Sheet #433
