Osteo-Bed Bone Embedding Kit
Osteo-Bed is a methyl methacrylate-based material formulated for embedding large and small mineralized (undecalcified) bone specimens. Osteo-Bed Bone can be removed from the section allowing the use of staining procedures similar to a paraffin section. Osteo-Bed Bone is also recommended for immunohistochemistry procedures performed on trephines and other non-decalcified bone or soft tissues.
Note: Material is not water-soluble.
Kit Contains (also available individually):
900ml Osteo-Bed Resin Solution A (Cat. #17734A)
2 x 12gm Osteo-Bed Bone Embedding Catalyst (Cat. #17734C)
For deplasticizing: 4x500ml Osteo-Bed Solvent Solution (Cat. #17734B) – item sold separately
Osteo-Bed Bone specimen should be sectioned on a microtome designed to cut hard tissue.
