Product Description

Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules are designed to hold tissue specimens during processing. Each weighted capsule contains three compartments for average-size specimens and remains upright for complete exposure to processing reagents.

The divider can be removed to accommodate larger specimens up to 34 mm. Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules are resistant to most chemicals and acids used in processing.

Applications

Tissue Processing

Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules hold specimens during histology tissue processing while maintaining complete exposure to processing reagents.

Multiple-Specimen Processing

Three compartments separate average-size specimens within a single capsule. The design also prevents identification slips from migrating between compartments during processing.

Larger Specimens

The internal divider can be removed to accommodate specimens up to 34 mm.

1. What are Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules used for?

Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules hold tissue specimens during processing. Their weighted design keeps the capsules upright for complete exposure to processing reagents.

2. How many compartments are in each Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsule?

Each capsule contains three compartments for average-size specimens. Identification slips remain separated between the compartments during processing.

3. What size specimen can a Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsule hold?

The divider can be removed to accommodate larger specimens up to 34 mm.

4. Are Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules resistant to tissue-processing chemicals?

Yes. Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules are resistant to most chemicals and acids used during processing.

5. Are Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules the same as Peel-A-Way® Embedding Molds?

No. Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules hold specimens during tissue processing. Peel-A-Way® Embedding Molds are disposable molds used to form and release solidified embedded blocks and are available in several shapes and sizes.

6. How many Peel-A-Way® Tissue Capsules are included?

Product 19802A contains 12 tissue capsules per carton.
