A molded silicone rubber grip to hold embedding capsules steady and protect fingers while slitting capsules to remove resin block. Package of 5. Learn More

These pre-shaped polyethylene capsules were developed to replace the conventional round-bottomed gelatin capsules with all their attendant problems.

Important advantages are:

1. They produce preformed blocks.

2. Orientation of specimen is facilitated.

3. The plastic does not adhere to the polymerized block, which is readily removed.

4. There is no need to pre-dry these capsules to eliminate moisture, as was too often necessary with gelatin capsules.

These capsules have proved of great use to the virologist for encapsulation of virus samples. They have also proved helpful to those microscopists who must examine cross-sections of thin elongated sections of tissue. Care must be exercised when filling these capsules to prevent entrapment of air in the tips. Suitable for centrifugal packing of whole cells. Makes a block that is 8 mm ID x 18 mm high. Learn More
