EM Fixatives
  1. Acetone, Glass Distilled, >99.5%

    Acetone can be used for hardening and dehydrating tissues. It can also be used for the extraction of various principles from animal and plant substances.

  2. Cacodylic acid, sodium salt, solution, 0.2M, pH 7.4

    Buffer for fixatives for light and electron microscopy; e.g., osmium tetroxide, formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde, Karnovsky’s fixative.

  3. Poly/LEM Fixative | Polysciences, Inc.
    Poly/LEM Fixative
    Catalog Number 16864

    For Light and Electron Microscopy. This popular methanol-free fixative is a formaldehyde-based material formulated to eliminate the need to select a fixative for tissue based on the type of microscopy to be employed.

  4. Glutaraldehyde, EM Grade, 25% | Polysciences, Inc.

    Polysciences was the first to develop a superior grade of glutaraldehyde suitable for immunochemical techniques. Each batch of vacuum distilled glutaraldehyde manufactured by Polysciences is analyzed to maintain consistent high quality and freedom from contaminants which destroy antigenicity. Each ampoule is fitted with an ampoule cracker for added safety.

  5. Acetone, EM grade & Histology grade 99.5% minimum | Polysciences, Inc.

    Used for various research needs. It is ideal for use as a fixative for frozen tissue sections for histology. EM grade quality.

  6. Glutaraldehyde, EM Grade, 70

    Polysciences was the first to develop a superior grade of glutaraldehyde suitable for immunochemical techniques.

  7. Glutaraldehyde, EM Grade, 50% | Polysciences, Inc.

    Polysciences was the first to develop a superior grade of glutaraldehyde suitable for immunochemical techniques. Each batch of vacuum distilled glutaraldehyde manufactured by Polysciences is analyzed to maintain consistent high quality and freedom from contaminants which destroy antigenicity.

  8. Glutaraldehyde, EM Grade, 8% | Polysciences, Inc.

    EM grade is recommended for histochemical or immunological techniques. Polysciences was the first to develop a superior grade of glutaraldehyde suitable for immunochemical techniques.
