The specimen holders accommodate 6 or 12 specimen batches from fixation through resin infiltration. They reduce handling and save time and costly chemicals. The holders fit our 36135 polypropylene petri dishes.
The outside dimensions of the holders are: 50.8mm diameter x 19mm High (44.5mm High with handle), (2" dia. x .75" H [1.75" H with handle]).

No. 36157-1 has 6 wells, 12.7mm diameter x 17mm deep (.5" dia. x .67" D).
No. 36158-1 has 12 wells, 9.5mm diameter x 17mm deep (.375" dia. x .67" D).
The mesh openings are 420µm.
The small hole is intended to receive the temperature probe (used to control temperature settings) while processing tissue in the microwave.

Numbered mats, available for both sizes, are plastic laminated to resist chemicals and may be written on with a marker. With the holder placed on the mat, easy identification of specific wells is possible. The kits includes one specimen holder, one ID mat and 20 polypropylene petri dishes (58 x 15mm, Prod. No. 36135) suitable for use in the microwave.

Corning Costar® Tissue Culture Plates

Tissue Culture-treated Plates are designed for a wide range of applications including general cell growth experiments, cloning studies, virus isolation and in vitro testing.
Plate bottoms have a uniform thickness, allowing for distortion-free observation. Alphanumeric coordinates are placed on the same focal plane as cell growth, for convenient referencing of cell position. Gripping edges make handling easier.

All plates have non-reversible covers with condensation rings to minimize evaporation and the risk of contamination.

Plates are made of optically clear, medical-grade non-pyrogenic polystyrene, TC-treated, sterile and are used for processing of tissue on the bench or in the microwave. The corresponding Wellplate Inserts (on previous page) are No. 36168 for the 6 cavity, No. 36170 for the 12 cavity, and No. 36172 for the 24 cavity.
