Features:
- Dehydration: When treating tissue, isopropanol is frequently
utilized in the dehydration phase. Tissue samples are successfully dried out
before being paraffin-embedded.
- Clearing Agent: It assists in preparing tissues for embedding by
acting as a cleansing agent in between dehydration and infiltration.
- Staining: In many staining procedures, isopropanol is employed,
especially when making and diluting staining solutions.
- Fixation: It maintains the cellular features and tissue
morphology of some histology specimens when employed as a fixative.
Safety and Handling:
- Preparation: Take isopropanol straight out of the bottle. To
preserve its efficacy and purity, make sure it is stored correctly.
- Application: Observe conventional histology procedures when it
comes to dehydration, clarifying, staining, and fixing. To avoid damaging
tissues, handle them gently.
- 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: Isopropanol can irritate skin and eyes and is highly
flammable. Wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE), such as lab
coats, gloves, and goggles.
Packaging:
32 oz (about 946 mL) bottle, offering enough material for a number of
