Mold for Cell Culture

This mold is designed primarily for embedding cell culture specimens grown either directly on the bottom of a dish or on the filter when cross sections of the cells are needed. Cells grown on petri dishes are cut into strips just before the propyleThis mold is designed primarily for embedding cell culture specimens grown either directly on the bottom of a dish or on the filter when cross sections of the cells are needed. Cells grown on petri dishes are cut into strips just before the propylene oxide dehydration step; when Propylene Oxide is added, the strips lift right off the bottom. When the strips are ready for embedment, they are rolled on an applicator stick into a wad and gently lowered into the well (the strips should not float).

• Many cells can be examined in cross section, there is no need for trimmin.
• The curved side makes the tip very strong in spite of its thinness.
• Easy detection of a strip of cells.
• The label is placed on the round part so as not to interfere with the specimen.
