An aromatic polyepoxide, a colorless resin of relatively low viscosity, with virtually no shrinkage.

Luft's Formula. Polymerization takes place overnight so blocks can be sectioned the next day. J. Biochem. Biophy. Cytol. 9, 409 (1961).

Also known as American Araldite. The blocks are slightly harder than those produced by Araldite 502.

Mollenhauer Epon-Araldite Formula. For hard blocks and high image contrast. Blocks are easily sectioned. Stain Tech., 39,11 (1964)

DGD is a removable embedding medium (for thin and thick sections) that provides embedment free sections. Good for immunolabeling and high resolution light microscopy.

Three different mixtures: one for relatively soft blocks, another for harder blocks for collagenous tissue, and a tougher one if required.

This mixture is less viscous than the final embedding mixture of EMbed-812.

Glycol Methacrylate embedding medium provides excellent preservation (especially enzymatic autoradiographic studies). Good for E.M., L.M., and Histo.

Polyethylene Glycol - Glycol methacrylate mixture. A water miscible embedding medium for cytochemical studies and enzyme localization when light and electron microscopy need to be correlated.

A water soluble embedding media which is based on Glycol Methacrylate (GMA) plastic embedding. It is intended for use in preparing samples for high resolution light microscopy (HRLM).

Offers all of the same features as JB-4™ with the following additions: Less exothermic reaction than JB4, good for temperature sensitive tissues. Harder blocks, which is ideal for dense samples, such as bone.

Provides excellent penetration for embedding biological tissues and rapid infiltration.

The mixture of Butyl and Methyl Methacrylate offers many advantages over the standard GMA and HPMA embedding mediums:

• It can be UV cured in the cold with the addition of benzoin methyl ether, or heat cured by the addition of benzoyl peroxide.
• The resin can be removed from the sections with a solvent (acetone) before staining.

A water miscible epoxy resin used for both light and electron microscopy. Its low viscosity permits easy infiltration and embedding, and yields light-colored blocks.

A water and lipid-retaining embedding polymer for EM. Excellent preservation of lipids and ultrastructure. 

***Sale within Germany and Austria only!***

Electron Microscopy Sciences' replacement for the discontinued Epon-812. Produces the same results in terms of preservation, handling, sectioning, and staining as the old Epon-812.
