SECTION 14 Histology and Light Microscopy Histology Cassettes
All the histology cassettes listed below are specially made to be used either manually or in any leading automatic cassette labeling instruments.
Tissue Processing/ Embedding Cassettes
Made from Acetyl Polymer, which is a special high density polymer that keeps specimens safely submerged in solution. These cassettes are totally resistant to most histological solvents and their slots offer maximum flow through for good fluid exchange and proper drainage. The lids either come attached to the cassette or are packaged separately. The lids can be opened and closed as often as necessary and they always relock securely without danger of specimen loss. Large labeling areas are located on three sides of the cassette for your convenience. Each slot measures: 1x5m, total 128 slots per cassette. Available in 11 different non- cytotoxic, non-metallic colors. Anterior writing area is at 45° angle to make the cassette universal.

Made from Acetal Polymer. These biopsy cassettes can hold up to six tissue specimens, each one placed in it’s own compartment, numbered from 1 to 6 and measuring 1 3⁄16
⁄4 ” x 7 ⁄16 ”x
”D(7x12x5mm). Cover and base have over 3000 0.26mm square openings. Cassettes keep specimen safely submerged in solvent and are totally resistant to the most histological solvents.
The efficient flow-through slots maximize fluid exchange and insure proper drainage. The one-piece integral lid eliminates the need for separate steel lids. Large labeling areas are located on three sides of the cassette. The anterior writing area is at a 45° angle, making the cassette, to some degree, able to be used with certain types of cassette labeling instruments. Each case contains 4 dispenser boxes of 250 cassettes with covers assembled.
