Paraplast Tissue Embedding Medium

Leica Paraplast Tissue Embedding Medium is a blend of polymers and highly-purified paraffin is provided in handy pellets for fast melting. It features excellent ribbon continuity for undistorted wrinkle-free sections and complete clearing without stainable residue. Choose from three different formulations:

Paraplast is excellent for general use. It gives even brittle, difficult-to-section tissue an innate elasticity, producing excellent, wrinkle-free sections.

Paraplast X-tra has a lower viscosity for large tissue or tissue that may normally present infiltration issues.

Paraplast Plus contains DMSO and is recommended for lower-temperature.

Packed in 1kg (2.2lbs.) bags of pellets
