|
| Features and Benefits: | Mixtures of Durcupan ACM present an interesting alternative to methacrylates for embedding sections for electron microscopy. They present the advantage that they harden uniformly, practically without shrinkage. All fixing agents normally used for electronmicroscopic work are also suitable for the Durcupan ACM embedding process. This process consists of three phases: dehydration of the tissue with acetone or ethyl alcohol, infiltration with the embedding agent, followed by hardening. |
