Description
Slotted cassette, loose is a histology embedding cassette with loose lids in orange for tissue processing, paraffin embedding and routine microscopy workflows. The slotted body promotes effective reagent exchange during fixation, dehydration and infiltration while keeping specimens securely retained for downstream sectioning. Colour-coded orange units support clear visual organisation of cases by protocol, priority or sample type in busy pathology and research laboratories. Supplied as a bulk pack of 1000 pc(s) with matching loose lids, the format suits high-throughput embedding stations and flexible cassette handling. Pack weight is 4,082 kg. These cassettes from manufacturer Epredia align with standard embedding, printing and storage systems used in clinical and life-science histology. They belong to the labware category for microscopy, histology instruments, embedding cassettes, moulds and storage, offering a practical solution for laboratories that rely on reliable fluid flow, secure specimen retention and simple colour identification throughout the embedding process.
This article belongs on Histology cassettes & moulds, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Slotted cassette, loose, with loose lids, orange, 1000 unit(s)
What is this article?
Slotted cassette, loose, with loose lids, orange, 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.
