The Aperio GT 450 DX is simple to operate and helps histotechnicians deliver rapid results with confidence. Complete scanning quickly and easily so you can focus on other tasks in the lab: 15 racks of 30 slides (450 slides total) can be loaded directly from HistoCore SPECTRA CV Coverslipper into the GT 450 DX. The slides are then automatically scanned at 81 slides per hour at 40x for a 15mm x 15mm area.

• No touch continuous loading during scanning
• Automated IQ checks during each scan to ensure quality
• Assign priority cases
• Every slide is calibrated with each scan
• 450 slide capacity packed into a small size fits on the lab bench
• 99.5% accurate tissue finder that allows you to adjust if needed*
• 100% first-time barcode scan success rate

Secure, Scalable Architecture for IT Professionals

X‐tra slides are used for demanding H&E procedures that require tissue adhesion. Size: 1�?x 3�?x .04�?(unless otherwise noted)

Hydrophobic surface with approximately 90 degree contact angle. Recommended uses include special stains, IHC, ISH, cryosectioning, and cytology.

The preformed blocks fit easily into the paraffin chamber of the ASP Tissue Processor.

Once the chamber is filled with the solid paraffin blocks, there is no need for the technician to return later to determine the paraffin volume and add additional paraffin.

Reduced risks since solid blocks eliminate pellet spills and the need to transfer molten paraffin.

The preformed blocks fit easily into the paraffin chamber of the PELORIS Tissue Processor and will melt faster than pellets or flakes.

Once the chamber is filled with the solid paraffin blocks, there is no need for the technician to return later to determine the paraffin volume and add additional paraffin.

Reduced risks since solid blocks eliminate pellet spills and the need to transfer molten paraffin.

EM-400 Embedding Medium is a blend of purified paraffin with synthetic polymers that enables sectioning with minimal compression.

The medium can facilitate routine sectioning at 1-2 microns on a rotary microtome.

Its low melting point (56-57º C, water bath temperature 37-42º C) reduces potential artifactual distortion in tissues heated above 60º during paraffin impregnation.

EM-400 will remain stable even at elevated temperatures.

It is available in a case of 10 x 2 lb (0.91 kg) lightweight bags to facilitate handling.

The preformed blocks fit easily into the paraffin chamber of the HistoCore PEGASUS Tissue Processor and will melt faster than pellets or flakes.

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use.

Paraplast High Melt embedding media is made from a combination of highly purified wax and plastic polymers of regulated molecular weights.

Produced by the same manufacturers of Paraplast, Paraplast High Melt can be used for infiltration or embedding and offers reproducibility while sectioning.

Paraplast is recommended for general tissue embedding. It is composed of a refined mixture of highly purified paraffin containing plastic polymers of regulated molecular weights. This supports improved tissue infiltration and quality sections with minimal compression. Paraplast gives brittle, difficult to section tissue an innate elasticity, promoting wrinkle-free sections.

Paraplast Plus is suggested for large tissue or tissue that may normally present infiltration issues. Paraplast Plus contains a small percentage of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), allowing accelerated tissue penetration.

Paraplast Xtra is recommended for lower temperature infiltration which aids in the prevention of tissue distortion. It is composed of a unique blend of low molecular weight polymers and highly purified paraffins for compression resistance and ribbon continuity. Low viscosity permits complete infiltration of dense tissue.

• Tissue Infiltration Medium is a special formulation of purified paraffin and plastic polymers for infiltration or embedding.
• Thorough impregnation of all types of tissue specimens can be achieved with either open or closed automatic processor systems.
• This medium can be used in conjunction with EM-400.
• It is stable and will not break down or separate at low or high temperatures.
• Available in 2lb bags.
• Melting Point: 56-57° C.
• Water Bath Temperature: 45-50° C.

Formula 'R' is a semitransparent compound which can be used both as an infiltration and embedding medium.

It has a low melting point (56-57º C, water bath temperature 45-50º C) and is available in 2 packaging options, a 2 lb. poly bag or 4.5 lb. jug. The perforated poly bag is easy to pour and takes up minimal space.

The resealable wide mouth plastic jug facilitates pouring as well as disposing of the used paraffin.

The paraffin enables the impregnation of tissue to occur rapidly and completely.

The wax however will remain stable even at elevated temperatures.

It is available in a case of 10 x 2 lb (0.91 kg) lightweight bags to facilitate handling.

The bluish tint promotes better visibility of smaller or milky-colored/opaque specimens popular with Dermatology and Urology Labs.
