Studies show that in order to get good results in positive staining of sections, the removal of cured epoxy (embedding material) as well as the reduced-osmium (fixation materials) from the sections is necessary; especially when double fixation with an Aldehyde and Osmium tetroxide is employed to process specimens for E.M. We offer a CURED-EPOXY-REMOVER kit, which removes the polymerized resin as well as the reduced-osmium. The structure of the resin free section will remain unchanged.
