LW white resin

This is a hydrophilic acrylic resin of low viscosity (8 cps) available in three grades of hardness. The resin has wide application, being suitable for both light and electron microscopy. With appropriate fixation, the same specimen may be used for both techniques although the soft grade is not recommended for EM use. It may be thermally cured or cold cured using the accelerator. It has been successfully used for immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical techniques but it is not designed to be used at very low temperatures since the components begin to separate out at about -15°C. Its low viscosity makes it suitable for infiltrating decalcified bone and teeth.
The catalysed versions must be stored at 4°C (air shipment or courier for export).
The resin is an irritant and the accelerator is toxic.

Hazardous material – an additional delivery charge will apply.
