Tissue Embedding Media
Electron Microscopy Sciences Polyester Wax 500 GR
A synthetic polyester wax with a very low melting point (37 degree C) used as a ribboning embedding medium. Its main advantage over paraffin and ester waxes is its low melting point, which reduces tissue hardening, shrinkage, and eliminates the need for infiltration ovens.
The wax is soluble in most organic solvents, including alcohol, ethers, esters, ketones and hydrocarbons. The wax is water tolerant, almost opaque, and sections easily. No electrification of ribbons occurs during sectioning. Sections of 2 microns and more may be cut at room temperatures between 10 and 22 degree C. It is advantageous to keep the wax in its solid state prior to use.
Electron Microscopy Sciences BEEM Embedding Capsule Conical Tip
Specially shaped capsules are designed to overcome commonly encountered embedding problems; such as, small or thin elongated specimens and powder samples. These capsules are also good for centrifuging precipitated matters and allows for less trimming. BEEM Is A Registered Trademark of Better Equipment For Electron Microscopy, Inc. Conical capsule produces a 7.9mm OD block with a conical (rather than faced) tip.

Electron Microscopy Sciences Meltmount™ Slide Mounting Media Quick-Stick™ 1.582
Cargille Meltmount (optical quality) is a series of mounting media which are specifically formulated for use in microscope slide mounting and in other optical coupling applications.
< Use Meltmount for instant thermal mountants that require "no-oven-time" and are thermally reversible for sample retrieval or re-orientation. Meltmounts are PBC free and contains no solvents. Cleanup in toluene. Fluid at 65 degree C. It is a direct replacement for old mountant mediums (Canada Balsam, Aroclor 5442, Naphrax...) It has a refractive index (nD @25 deg C) of 1.582 and an Abbe V dispersion of 33. Its optical clarity makes it the preferred choice for minimum visible absorption.
Refractive index: 1.582
Electron Microscopy Sciences Polyfin Embedding Medium 15 KG
Polyfin is a mixture of highly refined paraffins and co-polymer alloys in a convenient wax pellet. This unique formulation provides optimal tissue support while maintaining exceptional clarity. Our Polyfin has been institutionally tested and found to function flawlessly in pressure/vacuum fluid flow processors. Its low melting point (55 degree C) eliminates any tissue distortion caused by excessive heat during processing and has been demonstrated to have the least compression of seven popular paraffins.
Electron Microscopy Sciences TFM™ Tissue Freezing Medium, Green 4 OZ
An embedding matrix for frozen sections. TFM is an ultra pure formulation of water-soluble glycols and resins that provides a solid bond between the tissue and the object holder with the following features: less ice artifacts, less curling, and faster freezing.
Color: Green
Electron Microscopy Sciences BEEM Opaque Capsule Holder Size 3 Capsule
If microwaving or UV polymerizing of your embedding media these opaque BEEM capsule holders are perfect. Made from Polypropylene. All embedding capsules size 00 fit it.
Electron Microscopy Sciences EMS Rapid Immersion Freezer Environmental Chamber
The environmental chamber module can provide specific relative humidity and temperatures required for many types of samples for the EMS-002 Rapid Immersion Freezer.

It has a refractive index (nD @25 deg C) of 1.662 and an Abbe V dispersion of 26, optically similar to Aroclor 5442 but is PCB-free.
Refractive index: 1.662
Electron Microscopy Sciences BEEM Flat Embedding Mold
Molded from polyethylene. The critical surfaces of the mold are transparent, facilitating accurate specimen orientation through bottom illumination. Molds are reusable and each mold is supplied with a protective box.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Paraplast Regular 8 KG
Handy pellet Paraplast melts rapidly. Melting Point 56 degree C. Cuts to 4 micron thickness with excellent ribbon continuity - no Crumbling or cracking. Double filtered. No need for filtration before use.
Electron Microscopy Sciences BEEM Blocklock Flat Embedment, 20 Positions
Specimen blocks are safely stored in Blocklock storage modules, a component in the BEEM Specimen Storage System 2000. All Blocklocks can be inserted in a Plastic Protective Box or, by utilizing the adhesive feature, mounted in combination with other Blocklock modules on the BEEM mounting panel that fits in a standard " D-Type" 3-ring binder. Block snaps into cavities so it cannot be inadvertently dislodged. Number and letter identify each cavity. Measures 2-7⁄8"L x 2"W x 1/4"H (74 x 50 x 8mm)
