Special Fixative for Anatomical Specimens
Special Fixative for Anatomy & Histology is a fixative solution specially developed for use in histological preparation and examination of tissue specimens. It contains formaldehyde stabilized 37%, diethylene glycol and calcium carbonate (marble) as main ingredients. Tissue fixation is an important step in histological preparation as it preserves and stabilizes the cell structures and morphological details of the tissue for subsequent processing and staining.
Formaldehyde causes cross-linking and stabilization of proteins and nucleic acids, which helps to preserve the cell structures and morphological details of the tissue. Diethylene glycol serves as an excipient that enhances the fixation properties of formaldehyde and helps maintain tissue hydration. This can help minimize shrinkage and distortion of cells and tissues during fixation. Calcium carbonate is used to buffer the pH of the fixative and create an optimal environment for fixation. A stable pH environment is important to ensure uniform fixation and preservation of fine tissue detail.
The special composition of the special fixative facilitates anatomical preparation in particular. It provides reliable fixation and preservation of tissue specimens for subsequent histological examination and can be used in combination with various staining techniques to obtain detailed images of the cell structures and tissues under investigation.
