Description

Simport Histosette I Tissue Processing/Embedding Cassettes. Made of acetal polymer. Holds tissue specimen during the embedding process, as well as in a storage file. Molded from a special high density polymer. Keeps specimens safely submerged in liquid and are totally resistant to the chemical action of histological solvents. The efficient flow-through slots maximize fluid exchange and ensure proper drainage. The one-piece integral lid eliminates the need for separate steel lids. Just snap apart and conveniently lock the lid into the base of the cassette. They can be opened or closed as often as necessary and they always relock securely without danger of specimen loss. Large labeling areas are located on three sides. Anterior writing area at a 30° angle.

Frequently asked questions

Do the efficient flow-through slots maximize fluid exchange?

Yes, the Simport Histosette I Cassettes are specifically engineered for superior fluid management and optimal tissue processing.

  • Maximized Fluid Exchange: They feature efficient flow-through slots designed to maximize the exchange of histological solvents and guarantee proper specimen drainage.
  • Chemical Resistance: The cassettes are molded from a special high-density acetal polymer, offering total resistance to the chemical action of histological solvents, ensuring complete specimen integrity throughout processing.
Do these cassettes ensure optimal fluid exchange?

Yes, the Simport Histosette I cassettes are specifically engineered for optimal tissue processing, ensuring maximum fluid exchange and comprehensive drainage.

This crucial function is guaranteed by:

  • Efficient Flow-Through Slots: The cassette design incorporates specialized slots that maximize the contact surface between the tissue specimen and the processing fluids (histological solvents).
  • Superior Chemical Resistance: They are constructed from a high-density acetal polymer that provides total resistance to these solvents, ensuring the cassette’s structural integrity and specimen safety throughout the embedding procedure.
Does the Histosette I feature a secure lid?

Yes, the Simport Histosette I cassettes utilize a highly innovative and secure one-piece integral lid system.

This design provides several key advantages for handling tissue specimens during processing and embedding:

  • Secure Locking: The lid snaps firmly and securely into the cassette base, reliably retaining the specimen. It can be opened and securely relocked multiple times without compromising security or risking specimen loss.
  • Streamlined Workflow: The integral design eliminates the need for separate steel lids, simplifying laboratory procedures.
  • High-Density Material: Constructed from acetal polymer, the lid system ensures total resistance to the chemical action of histological solvents.
Do these cassettes have large labeling areas?

Yes, the Simport Histosette I cassettes are designed for efficient specimen identification and provide superior labeling capabilities during tissue processing.

Key features include:

  • Extensive Coverage: Large labeling areas are provided on three sides of the cassette, maximizing space for crucial identification details.
  • Ergonomic Writing: For optimal user convenience and legibility, the anterior writing surface is molded at a comfortable 30° angle.
Are many colors available for sample coding?

Yes, these cassettes are available in an extensive selection of colors, making visual sorting and identification of different tissue specimens or processing batches highly efficient for laboratory organization.

There are 14 distinct color options available, including standard and fluorescent shades:

  • Gray
  • Green
  • Tan
  • Lilac
  • Aqua
  • Pink
  • Peach
  • Orange
  • Blue
  • White
  • Yellow
  • Fluorescent Pink
  • Fluorescent Green
  • Fluorescent Yellow
What is the standard case quantity for the cassettes?

The standard quantity for a full case is 1,500 cassettes, broken down as follows:

Packaging Unit Quantity
Cassettes per Box 500
Boxes per Case 3

This bulk packaging (3 boxes per case) supports efficient inventory management for continuous tissue processing and embedding workflows.

Are these cassettes ideal for tissue processing and embedding?

Yes, the Simport Histosette I cassettes are specifically engineered for highly secure and efficient use throughout the histology workflow, including tissue processing, embedding, and long-term storage.

They are ideal due to several key design features:

  • Exceptional Chemical Resistance: They are molded from a special high-density acetal polymer, ensuring total resistance to the chemical action of common histological solvents, thus protecting specimen integrity.
  • Optimized Fluid Exchange: Efficient flow-through slots are incorporated into the design to maximize fluid exchange and ensure complete drainage during processing.
  • Secure, Integrated Lid: They feature a one-piece integral lid that snaps securely into the base. This eliminates the need for separate steel lids and allows the cassette to be opened and relocked multiple times without the risk of specimen loss.
  • Superior Labeling: Large labeling areas are available on three sides, including an anterior writing area angled at 30 degrees for ease of use.
Is the cassette writing area optimally angled?

Yes, the Simport Histosette I cassettes are specifically designed for easy labeling and identification during tissue processing.

Key features of the labeling area include:

  • Optimal Angle: The primary anterior writing area is conveniently molded at a 30° angle, ensuring ease of use and clear legibility for comfortable annotation.
  • Ample Space: Large labeling areas are provided on three sides of the cassette, offering sufficient space for all necessary sample information.
  • Variant Options: While 30° is the standard design, Simport also offers certain variants that feature a 45° angled writing surface.
Are the cassettes made of high-quality acetal polymer?

Yes, the Simport Histosette I cassettes are molded from a specialized, high-density acetal polymer.

This material is crucial for ensuring the integrity and security of the tissue specimens throughout the laboratory process. Key advantages include:

  • Total Chemical Resistance: The acetal polymer is completely resistant to the chemical action of histological solvents, safeguarding the tissue specimen.
  • Superior Durability: The high-density construction ensures reliability during tissue processing, embedding, and long-term archival storage.
  • Secure Locking: It supports the innovative one-piece integral lid design, allowing the cassettes to be securely opened and closed repeatedly without risking specimen loss.
Do these cassettes resist histological solvents?

Yes, the Simport Histosette I Cassettes are engineered for maximum durability and are totally resistant to histological solvents.

This high level of resistance is guaranteed by their construction:

  • They are molded from a specialized high-density acetal polymer.
  • This material safeguards the specimen integrity by ensuring the cassette does not degrade or react with chemical agents used during tissue processing and embedding.
