Description

The Paraffin Trimmer YR458 is an essential tool in any histology laboratory, designed to optimize the process of microtomy and sample cutting.

The preparation process begins with tissue dehydration through increasing concentrations of alcohol and rinsing with an organic solvent such as xylene. Then, the tissue is immersed in paraffin wax for several hours before being placed in a mold to cool and solidify. The YR458 Paraffin Trimmer safely and easily removes excess paraffin from embedding cassettes by sliding over its heated surface.
