Description
Biopsy embedding cassettes, beige, are histology consumables for secure handling and processing of small tissue specimens in pathology workflows. Made from high-quality technical plastic (POM), they feature a perforation pattern with openings of 1 mm edge length that supports efficient reagent exchange during fixation, dehydration and embedding. Base and lid are joined by a hinge and are supplied fully assembled for immediate use at the bench. Designed for applications in accordance with EU Regulation 2017/746 on in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVDR), the cassettes carry a CE mark and batch number to support clear identification and full traceability throughout the laboratory process. Supplied from manufacturer Marienfeld, they are packed 500 pieces per carton and 6,000 pieces per outer carton; for larger offtake, lids and bases can also be delivered separately so they need not be opened before printing. The durable POM construction suits routine solvent exposure in tissue processing, while the beige colour coding aids visual organisation of specimen types. These biopsy embedding cassettes offer a practical, standardised format for paraffin embedding and cassette-based sample management in clinical and research histology laboratories.
This article is part of Histology cassettes & moulds, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Embedding cassettes Biopsy, beige,
What is this article?
Embedding cassettes Biopsy, beige, is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Marienfeld for laboratory use. It sits in Histology cassettes & moulds, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A histology cassette holds a tissue through processing, and a mould forms the paraffin block. The cassette's holes have to let solvents through and still keep the specimen. A fine biopsy and a large organ are different cassettes.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
