Solvent reagent AlcoolPath 100

for histology

Absolute AlcoolPath An absolute alcohol mix comprising ethyl alcohol. Primary container: white bottle in polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Useful capacity 2.5 liters. HDPE cap. Tamper evident cap. The polyethylenterephthalate is a thermoplastic polymer of the polyester family. PET is an optimal oxygen, carbon dioxide and other gasses barrier. This material has an high resistance to ultraviolet radiation and an inertia toward the mainly chemical agents (solvents: xylene, limonene, liquid paraffines, alcohols, acids, bases etc.). It is biologically inert. It constitutes a good water and humidity barrier. It shows a great hardness and mechanical resistance. The bottle has an optimal grip. The absence of the handles reduces space for storage. The anti-dropping cap permits a precise and clean use. Secondary container: carton box. Primary container: PE tank, capacity 5 liters. Screwcap in PE with a seal. Watertight. Wear, water, alcohol and solvents resistant PVC label. Scratchproof ink resistant to water and alcohol. Product for the preparation of cyto-histological samples for optical microscopy Alcoholic mixture formulated and optimized for use in the histological and cytological routine: • processing • dewaxing • dehydration It is comparable to absolute ethanol, so it can be inserted into existing protocols, without the addition of any changes. The small percentage of isopropanol in AlcoolPath 95 does not change the dehydrating power of the solvent and improves compatibility with the tissue by reducing the common phenomena of shrinkage and hardening
