Controlled Dehydration & Rehydration: The 70% concentration provides a gentle yet effective step in both the ascending (dehydration) and descending (rehydration) alcohol series. This controlled process minimizes harsh osmotic shock to tissue, helping to preserve delicate cellular morphology and prevent excessive shrinkage or hardening.
Versatile Application: Indispensable for a wide array of histological and cytological procedures, including:
Tissue Processing: A key intermediate step in automated and manual tissue dehydration protocols, preparing samples for clearing.
Rehydration: Essential for gradually rehydrating deparaffinized sections before aqueous staining, preventing cell damage.
Stain Dilution & Rinsing: Used as a solvent for specific stains and as a rinse bath to remove excess dye, ensuring precise staining patterns.
Fixative Component: Can be used as a component in some fixative formulations or for post-fixation washes.
Antimicrobial Properties: While its primary role is not disinfection, the 70% concentration offers some antimicrobial properties, which can be beneficial in maintaining a cleaner working environment and minimizing contamination during processing.
Histology Grade Purity: Manufactured under rigorous quality control standards to ensure high purity, minimizing contaminants that could interfere with delicate staining reactions or introduce artifacts into your samples.
Consistent Performance: Every batch of VION Histology Grade 70% Ethanol undergoes thorough testing to guarantee consistent concentration and performance, ensuring reliability and reproducibility across all your experiments.
