Description
Metal embedding moulds measuring 24 x 24 x 5 mm provide a defined cavity for orienting and embedding tissue specimens in paraffin or other media prior to sectioning. The 24 x 24 x 5 mm format accommodates medium-sized samples typical of routine histopathology, research histology and educational microscopy. Each pack contains 10 pc(s) and weighs 0,123 kg, offering a practical stock level for busy embedding stations. Metal construction supports repeated use under standard laboratory conditions and pairs readily with embedding cassettes and block storage systems. These moulds from manufacturer Epredia are intended for microscopy and histology workflows where consistent block geometry aids clamping and microtomy. Clear cavity dimensions help maintain specimen orientation during solidification of the embedding medium, supporting reproducible paraffin blocks. Diagnostic and research laboratories can incorporate the moulds into established tissue-processing protocols without altering upstream fixation or dehydration steps. The ten-unit pack keeps essential embedding consumables available for continuous daily operation.

Questions about Metal embedding moulds, 24 x 24 x 5 mm, 10 unit(s)
What is this article?
Metal embedding moulds, 24 x 24 x 5 mm, 10 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.
