PATHOLOGY SLIDE PARAFFIN WAX
Paraffin wax is a saturated hydrocarbon polymer derived from petroleum. Pathology slide paraffin wax is a specialized medium used in histology and pathology for the embedding, preservation, and processing of biological tissue specimens.
PATHOLOGY SLIDE PARAFFIN WAX HAS A VARIETY OF APPLICATIONS IN THE FIELD OF HISTOLOGY AND PATHOLOGY.
TISSUE PRESERVATION FOR HISTOPATHOLOGY
Paraffin wax is widely used to embed and preserve tissue specimens, allowing for long-term storage and protection against degradation. This facilitates detailed examination of tissues for disease diagnosis.
PREPARATION FOR MICROSCOPY
Once embedded in paraffin, tissues can be sliced into ultra-thin sections for microscopic examination. This thin sectioning is essential for high-resolution imaging and accurate assessment of cell and tissue structures.
IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY (IHC)
Paraffin-embedded tissues are frequently used in immunohistochemical staining, which helps in identifying specific proteins or antigens in tissue samples. This application is critical for diagnosing various cancers and other diseases.
MOLECULAR PATHOLOGY
Embedded tissues can be used for molecular techniques, such as in situ hybridization and PCR, after extracting nucleic acids from paraffin-embedded samples. This allows for the study of gene expression and genetic mutations.

EXCELLENT TISSUE PRESERVATION
Paraffin wax provides superior tissue preservation, allowing for the detailed examination of cellular structures. The wax fully infiltrates the tissue, helping to maintain morphology and preventing degradation over time.
OPTIMAL STAINING PROPERTIES
Paraffin-embedded tissues can be easily sectioned and stained with a variety of histological stains, including Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and special stains. This versatility enhances the visibility of cellular components and pathological features.
LONG-TERM STORAGE
Specimens embedded in paraffin wax can be stored for extended periods without significant degradation. This is crucial for retrospective studies and archival purposes, allowing researchers and pathologists to access historical samples.
EASE OF SECTIONING
Paraffin wax is convenient for microtomy, allowing for the slicing of very thin sections (typically 4-10 micrometers) with smooth edges, which is essential for accurate analysis under a microscope.
COMPATIBILITY WITH AUTOMATION
Many modern histology laboratories utilize automated processing systems that efficiently handle paraffin-embedded samples. This compatibility streamlines workflow and reduces the labor intensity of tissue processing.
