{"product_id":"paraplast-plus-1","title":"Paraplast Plus","description":"\u003cp\u003eParaplast Plus is a refined mixture of highly purified paraffin containing complex elastomer of regulated molecular weights plus a small percentage of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) for fast tissue penetration. It produces minimal tissue compression and wrinkle-free sections and cuts to 4μm thickness with excellent ribbon continuity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eParaplast tissue embedding media are made from highly purified wax combined with plastic polymers for tensile strength and elasticity. Paraplast Plus provides rapid infiltration during processing as well as great compression resistance during sectioning for preserved morphology and thin, distortion-free sections.\u003cbr\u003eOur range of Paraplast products improve the elasticity of brittle, difficult-to-cut tissues making it easier to produce excellent, wrinkle-free sections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduces minimal tissue compression and wrinkle-free sections, and cuts to 4μm thickness with excellent ribbon continuity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.8% DMSO enhances ease of infiltration and sectioning for tissues difficult to process with regular Paraplast.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigher melt viscosity and lower permeability to water vapor creates better adhesion and a more pliable, flexible film.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimal infiltration and embedding for high-quality sections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat compression resistance and ribbon continuity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemarkable morphology preservation and distortion-free sections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eParaplast Plus is recommended for large specimens and tissue that commonly presents infiltration problems.
