T-Sue™ Tissue Microarray Mold Kits
One inside side corner 45°
Easy cassette positioning
Tissue Microarray (TMA) is a technique that enables tissues from multiple donor blocks to be arrayed on a single slide.
T-Sue™ array molds are specifically designed to be simple, easy to use and inexpensive. The tissues can be analyzed in consistent conditions enhancing the efficiency of the research. The T-Sue™ Microarray molds allow you to perform TMAs more quickly with excellent results. By using array molds, you can process up to 170 specimens onto one single slide in very little time.
We offer 7 different patterns to fit your needs. To facilitate orientation, one inside wall corner is at a 45° angle.
Made of silicone, these molds can withstand temperatures between -100°C to +250°C and be reused hundreds of times without losing their flexibility.
Each kit includes one T-Sue™ array mold and four punch needles with stylet.

SureSeal™ Sterile Sampling Bags
SureSeal™ Bags are gamma sterilized, leaving a virgin interior surface with no toxic residue from gas exposure. Samples can easily be collected by removing the tear strip above the wire closure and pulling on the two external grip tabs to open the mouth of the bag to the desired level. Using the grip tabs ensures sterility and eliminates the risk of contamination from finger contact. Then, introduce the sample into the bag, flip or fold the bag three times, bend the wires and your sample is secure inside the airtight and moisture-sealed bag.
SureSeal™ bags are made of virgin polyethylene for excellent clarity and stregth. They meet USDA, EPA and FDA standards and are sterile, RNase-free, DNase-free and non-pyrogenic. The PVC tab that surrounds the stainless steel wire is extended beyond the wire ends to eliminate the potential for punctures, scratched hands or ripped gloves due to exposure to uncovered wire ends.
Several sizes are supplied with a white printed area that eliminates tapes, labels, etc. and makes markings more longlasting, clearly visible and less prone to smearing. Although these bags can contain up to 55oz. (1600 ml), they fold completely flat and require very little storage space.

Technical Tip
Aqua-Hold Pap Pen
The Aqua-Hold Pap Pen draws a liquid repellent barrier around a section of tissue. Used like a paint pen, you just draw a well on a slide. The barrier creates the proper surface tension to hold aqueous solutions such as costly antibody and other valuable specimens. After application, the barrier material is insoluble in alcohol and acetone but can be removed after staining with xylene. Each pen holds 13 ml of long-lasting material, making hundreds of wells. Red tint distinguishes the well drawing on the slide to easily view.

Fro-Marker
A wide tipped pen designed for use with frozen sections. The pen provides a sticky membrane which when applied to the slide and onto which the section is placed it eliminates the section from falling off, moving, or wrinkling on the slide during immunostaining procedures. The membrane is stable up to 110°C and is suitable for vigorous applications such as in-situ hybridization.
| 71313-10 | Fro-Marker | each | 91.00 | Add to Cart |
Para-Marker
A wide tipped pen, designed for use with paraffin sections. The pen provides a sticky membrane to the glass slide which not only prevents paraffin sections from falling off but also keeps the sections flat on the slide.

Tissue Capture Pen
With one swift application of the EMS Tissue Capture Pen, you are able to change your plain glass slide into a coated one.
The EMS Tissue Capture Pen is a coating pen with a wide point (18 mm) for fixing various tissue sections (paraffin embedded, frozen and formalin sections, etc.) The unique pen is unaffected by heat up to 120°C so it offers secure and firm adhesion of the tissue section. It may be used in Microwave staining, immunostaining, in situ etc….
One application is all that is needed, and after it is applied, allow to dry for 1-2 minutes.
The EMS Tissue Capture may be used in conjunction with our Pap-Pen (71310) and will allow for easy placement of adherent as well as nonadherent cells on a glass slide. Immunostaining/ISH can be performed by applying a few drops of tissue suspension or liquid media onto the glass slide which is circled by the Pap-Pen, and then your section can be placed.
