Size: 1 Bottle; 12 Bottles/1 Case
Introduction:This product is a highly viscous embedding medium for frozen sections that will "stay put" and not "run" when dispensed onto a block holder (e.g. the specimen stage). The gel is packaged in a unique pump dispenser bottle that can dispense Cryo-Gel in literally any position. One full pump stroke will dispense approximately 2.5 mL. For most specimens, between 1/4 and 1/2 stroke is generally sufficient. The diameter of the dispensed gel on the block holder should be the size of a pea (approximately 1 cm diameter) depending on the size of the specimen being mounted. Cryo-Gel is biodegradable and completely water soluble. The freezing point of the gel is that of water, namely 0 °C. It is not necessary to spread the gel on the block holder.
