O.C.T. Embedding Compound – 130 mL (Tissue-Tek)

Product Description

O.C.T. Embedding Compound – 130 mL (Tissue-Tek) is a premium water-soluble embedding medium designed to support and protect tissue specimens during cryostat sectioning. It provides excellent specimen stability at low temperatures, allowing laboratories to obtain consistent, high-quality frozen sections for histological analysis.

The compound forms a supportive matrix around the specimen, ensuring proper orientation and secure positioning during the freezing process. It freezes rapidly and provides optimal cutting support for delicate or small tissue samples without interfering with staining procedures.

This embedding medium is widely used in histology, pathology, and research laboratories for routine frozen section preparation and diagnostic procedures.
