Description
Slotted cassette, loose is a histology embedding cassette with a slotted body and separate loose lids, finished in blue for clear sample identification. It supports tissue holding during fixation, processing and paraffin embedding in microscopy and histology laboratories. The slotted construction promotes thorough fluid exchange around the specimen during dehydration and infiltration steps, and the loose lids give technicians freedom in how cassettes are loaded and closed. Packs contain 1000 pc(s) of cassettes with matching loose lids, making the format practical for busy pathology suites with continuous embedding demand. Blue colour coding assists organisation by case type, staining route or laboratory section. These cassettes from manufacturer Epredia are intended for use with standard embedding moulds, processing equipment and cassette storage systems. With a pack weight of 3,960 kg, the bulk unit quantity suits laboratories that maintain a reliable stock of embedding cassettes for daily tissue preparation, block production and subsequent storage within the histology workflow.
This article is part of Histology cassettes & moulds, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Slotted cassette, loose, with loose lids, blue, 1000 unit(s)
What is this article?
Slotted cassette, loose, with loose lids, blue, 1000 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Epredia 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.
