Exceptional Clearing Agent: Xylene effectively removes dehydrating alcohols from tissue samples, rendering the tissue transparent. This is a critical step before paraffin infiltration, as it ensures proper embedding and subsequent sectioning without artifacts.

Optimal for Coverslipping: Vion Histology Grade Xylene is the ideal solvent for mounting media, ensuring bubble-free, permanent coverslipping. It provides excellent miscibility with resins, creating a stable and optically clear bond between the slide, tissue, and coverslip.

Efficient Deparaffinization: Our xylene efficiently dissolves paraffin wax from mounted tissue sections, preparing them for re-hydration and subsequent staining. This ensures complete wax removal for optimal stain penetration and clarity.

High Purity: Manufactured to stringent histology-grade standards, our Xylene is rigorously purified to minimize impurities that could interfere with staining reactions, lead to cloudiness, or introduce artifacts on your slides. This results in pristine, clear microscopic images.

Consistent Quality: Every batch of Vion Histology Grade Xylene undergoes thorough quality control testing to guarantee consistent composition and performance, ensuring reliability and reproducibility across all your critical laboratory procedures.

Versatile Laboratory Solvent: Beyond its primary roles in histology, xylene is also a powerful solvent for cleaning laboratory glassware and equipment, ensuring a contaminant-free environment.

WARNING! : This product can expose you to Ethylbenzene, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer.
