Frequently asked questions
Is the formalin solution pre-mixed?

Are these containers leak-proof for transport?
Yes, they feature a secure screw-top closure that provides a moisture and tamper-resistant seal, designed to keep your specimens safe and secure during transport.
Are these suitable for large tissue specimens?
Absolutely. These containers have a 1.25-gallon (160 oz) capacity, making them specifically engineered for the collection and long-term storage of larger biological tissue samples.
Is this product considered sterile?
No, these containers are non-sterile. They are designed for histological specimen fixation and storage, where a sterile environment is not typically required.
Is this specific model suitable for histological use?
Yes, this model (PFNBF-1.25G) is specifically engineered for histological applications, providing the standardized conditions required for professional tissue specimen fixation and storage.
What material are these containers made of?
They are constructed from high-density polyethylene (HDPE). This material is chosen for its excellent chemical compatibility and structural durability in professional laboratory environments.
Does the container include a handle?
Yes, each unit features an integrated handle attached to the rim. This is designed to facilitate easy, ergonomic, and safe movement of the container within your facility.
Can I write identifying information on the surface?
