EDM 3 LLC Cytology Fixative Flammable Liquid, 4 oz is a premium cytology reagent intended for use in a range of staining and cell preparation methods. This reagent guarantees high purity and consistency with an ACS (American Chemical Society) grade of 96%, which is necessary to produce dependable and repeatable results. It comes packaged in a handy 4 oz (around 118 mL) container that is appropriate for small to medium-sized labs.
Features:
Fixation: By fixing cells on slides, this reagent helps to maintain cellular shape and stop it from deteriorating during staining and analysis.
Dehydration: It works well to remove moisture from cell samples, which is a necessary step before embedding or staining.
Clearing: Isopropanol and acetone work together as a clearing agent, eliminating lipids and other compounds that could cause interference from the samples.
Staining: Under a microscope, PEG in the reagent facilitates the equal distribution and penetration of stains, enhancing their visibility.
Safety and Handling:
Preparation: Utilize the reagent straight out of the bottle. Make sure the mixture is thoroughly combined before using it.
Application: Use on cell samples in accordance with accepted cytology procedures. Make sure you handle things properly to get the best results.
Storage: Keep out of the heat and open flames and store in a cold, dry location. When not in use, keep the container tightly closed to avoid contamination and evaporation.
Safety: Components of the reagent are volatile and combustible. Wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE), such as lab coats, gloves, and goggles.
