Clean-Cut Autopsy Saw and Extraction System and Accessories The Clean Cut Autopsy Saw and Extractor system has a range of safety features designed specifically for autopsy work. The unit includes a water proof, completely enclosed saw handpiece that is fully immersible, allowing it to be routinely scrubbed and thoroughly disinfected after use. It also features a slim, extended nose for improved cutting in confined areas. The oscillation speed can be varied from zero to maximum for optimum cutting efficiency. The lighter weight of this instrument assists in minimizing user fatigue. A diverse range of replacement blades and accessories are available.

The Clean Cut Extractor features an overhead power unit which allows the drum section to be completely separated for thorough washing and cleaning. Once the saw is turned off, the extractor will run for a further five seconds to purge the system of debris. The Clean Cut Autopsy Saw and Extractor system, which includes a H.E.P.A. (High Efficiency Particulate Absolute) filter, operates to the highest standards of pathogenic debris, such as bone dust containment and filtration. This device is situated on castors to allow for easy mobility. A one year manufacturer's limited warranty is included.

Autopsy Saw and Accessories.

Autopsy.

Feather® Autopsy, Trimming and Dissection Range The Feather® Autopsy, Trimming and Dissection range is internationally renowned for its sharpness and versatility. The Autopsy Handle is autoclavable, easy to clean and highly chemically resistant. The handle is reusable with a variety of interchangeable disposable stainless steel Autopsy Blades. There are also a number of reusable Trimming Handles that can be used with the disposable Trimming Blades and these are available in right and left-handed versions. The F-80 Trimming Handle can be used with Feather® Disposable Microtome Blades, converting these ultra-sharp high quality blades to trimming tools. The Dissecting Handle, made from a special hard resin, is also autoclavable and can hold two types of long-life ultra-sharp disposable Dissecting Blades.

The newly developed Feather® Safety Trimming System combines the well respected Feather® Trimming Blades, with a new blade exchange system, which enables a simple, safe and fast change of blade. The blades are single packed with a blade cover and therefore a direct contact with the Trimming Blade can be avoided. This protects the user from injury and infections. The ergonomically designed plastic handle is heat resistent, autoclavable and easy to clean.

The #22 Feather® brand scalpel blades are stainless steel, which provide a durable, precision edge. They are packaged individually and are sterile to maximize their applications. Designed to be used with a #4 Stainless Steel contoured handle which accentuates proper feel and dexterity.

These blades are also available packaged with disposable, plastic handles. This is an excellent choice where isolation and disposal of the instrument is required to eliminate cross contamination.

Scalpel Blade #11 is available for microspecimen and dermopathology applications or where a smaller precision blade is preferred.

Forceps.

Ergonomic Forceps.

All instruments are made from premium grade, hardened stainless steel and feature a protective coating to provide extra durability and protection against rust and corrosion. Each instrument is satin-matt finished to reduce eye-fatiguing glare.

All of our ergonomic designs were manufactured with the operator in mind. Each style forcep is machine drilled to minimize weight while still maintaining the balance and feel of the instrument. The anti-slip paddle handle assists in decreasing the tension required to engage the gripping motion, as well as creating passivity for the specimen. These elements promote the reduction of operator fatigue associated in repetitive motion applications such as grossing, embedding and microtomy techniques. Most of the ergonomic designs will fit properly in the heated ports of the majority of embedding stations available on the market.

Feather Disposable Microtome BladesThe Feather Autopsy, Trimming and Dissection range is internationally renowned for its sharpness and versatility. Made from the finest grade stainless steel, each blade is heat treated and finely ground in three stages to produce an extremely precise cutting edge. The blades are then specially coated to minimize friction and maximize blade longevity.

A variety of blades are available, each suited to a particular application or tissue type: Feather S35 – A low profile blade for all routine sectioning. Feather R35 – Enables easier ribboning. Ideal for hard fibrous tissue. Feather N35 – Suitable for hard tissue and for thin sectioning. Feather A35 – For routine sectioning of soft and hard tissue. Also suited for thinner sections. Feather S22 – For cutting soft tissue and obtaining extremely thin sections. Ideal for skin, lymph node and renal biopsies. Feather S35L – A longer 120 mm version of the Feather S35 to facilitate the cutting of larger blocks normally on a sledge or sliding microtome. Feather S35LL – A longer 180 mm version of the Feather S35 to facilitate the cutting of very large blocks. A sliding microtome is required to use this blade. Feather C35 – A disposable carbon steel blade ideally suited for sectioning in a cryostat. Able to shear very thin frozen sections. Feather S35 High Profile – Twice the depth of the Feather S35 (requiring a specific High Profile blade holder). Suitable for all routine sectioning.

With the exception of the C35 Blade, it is recommended to trim in all Feather microtome blades to improve blade longevity. During trimming-in of the blade, care must be taken not to damage the surface coating, as this can cause scoring. Available in packs of 50.

Airchek® Badges Airchek Badges provide an innovative, simple and effective system to monitor vapour levels. Standard badges are available for formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde and xylene. The Airchek badges provide continuous sampling for personal monitoring and can give the measurements required under Government regulations. The badges are simply clipped on to the technician’s clothing and a record is kept of name, location and time. One badge will provide continuous sampling over 8 hours and a second badge can be used to supply information to analyse a 15-minute period during peak exposure. Both badges are then sent to Leica Microsystems to be forwarded to an independent accredited laboratory for analysis. The analysis is performed using HPLC giving a formaldehyde sensitivity of 0.004 p.p.m. ± 19% at 2.00 p.p.m Once the results are determined, the laboratory receives a report specifying the exposure per individual technician for the appropriate chemical. It also indicates the results in a format which can be readily compared to the Workplace Exposure Limits. Badges to monitor other chemicals are also available.


3800753E D-Formalizer, 680 g Case / 10 Packages

D-Formalizer® Powder D-Formalizer is a safe chemical treatment for neutralizing spent formalin. It leaves a clear solution, free of solids and aldehyde odor, that can be disposed of without clogging the drains. Simply add one packet of D-Formalizer to a gallon of used formalin (or 4% glutaraldehyde) and agitate gently. After 15 minutes, the product can be safely poured down the drain in compliance with local ordinances. The resulting solution will have a pH between 6 and 9 and will be free of polymer by-product. An aldehyde kit is also available to test for residual aldehyde and includes 100 tests per box. D-Formalizer is availabe per package or in a case of 10 packages.


3800752E Formalin Control Granules, 680 g Case / 6

F.C.G.® Unlike general absorption products, which soak up spillage, F.C.G.® deactivates chemicals and converts formaldehyde into a solid, inert mass of urea-formaldehyde which can be disposed of as a non-hazardous waste. It is effective on 37% formaldehyde and takes just 10-15 minutes to convert the liquid to a solid. Vapours will be neutralised in around 7-10 minutes. F.C.G. comes in an easy-to-hold pack containing 680 gm - enough for even large spillages. One side of the container allows F.C.G. to be poured, the other side allows it to be sprinkled less liberally for smaller incidents. One container of F.C.G. treats approximately 500 mL of 10% Neutral Buffered Formalin.

38007530810 D-Formalizer Pads, 8" x 10" (203 x 254 mm) Pack / 25



D-Formalizer® Pads D-Formalizer Pads reduce formaldehyde exposure by absorbing and neutralising any excess formalin. The durable blue surface of the pads provides an excellent contrast to even small pieces of tissue. The Pads are also useful for soaking up leakage and de-odourising vapours in other applications. They can be used to line shelves which hold specimen containers that may seep formaldehyde around the lid, or to line transport boxes where leaks may occur. D-Formalizer Pads are available in various sizes and also in a convenient roll so that lengths can be cut as required. For best results, the D-Formalizer Pad Roll should be used with the D-Formalizer Pad Dispenser. Pads come in packs of 25 and sizes include 203 x 254 mm, 280 x 356 mm, 406 x 508 mm. D-Formalizer role is 356 x 15.5 m.

D-Formalizer® Pad DispenserFor use with the D-Formalizer Pad Rolls, this handly dispenser makes cutting lengths effortless. The metal dispenser will hold a Roll of D-Formalizer Pad securely and uses a spring-pressured guide to keep the Roll in place. The Pad can then be easily unrolled to the required length and cut with a knife. The Dispenser can be mounted horizontally or vertically on a bench top or under a bench cabinet.

X-Tract Filtration System & Bactiguard Pre-FilterThe X-Tract Filtration System is a portable unit for removing hazardous vapours from localised sources. It will remove both formalin and xylene vapours while its Bactiguard Pre-Filter will eliminate microbes and viruses. Laboratory technicians are routinely exposed to a variety of harmful chemical vapours in the workplace, for instance aldehydes such as formalin and glutaraldehyde, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), such as xylene and ethanol. It is a legal requirement that employers ensure exposure remains below Workplace Exposure Limits.

The X-Tract Filtration System uses state-of-the-art technology to remove potentially harmful vapours. Fitted with a powerful, variable speed fan, the unit draws contaminated air through a sealed replaceable cartridge containing material which attracts, reacts with and removes vapour molecules. Non-hazardous by-products are released via the rear vents. The unit is compact and suitable even for a small work area and has a convenient carrying handle so it can be easily moved and taken to a spill site to remove harmful fumes. In such cases, it is best to place the unit next to the source and close off all other ventilation.

The X-Tract is also useful for removing fumes from air-drying slides following mounting and coverslipping and also for removing fumes from specimen storage rooms and reception areas. The X-Tract Filtration System has been designed to operate safely for 24-hours per day and can be left on continuously to remove background levels of harmful vapours from the laboratory environment. The life-span of the vapour filtration cartridge varies depending on the concentration of the vapours to which it is exposed and the volume of the room in which it is working, but typically it should be changed every three months. An alarm will sound when the cartridge is due to be changed. The unit runs on 12 volts DC for increased staff safety. The Bactiguard Fre-Filter contains two compounds that, in turn, weaken the cell walls and disrupt cellular activity of bacteria, thereby eradicating them. Bactiguard has also been shown to be very successful at eradicating the synthetic test virus MS2 Coliphage™, which has a molecular size of 23 nm, smaller than many disease causing viruses (eg the influenza virus ranges from 150 to 200 nm). For maximum efficiency, the Bactiguard Pre-Filter should be changed every month.

Nitrile Glove The Nitrile Glove is made of 100% pure nitrile. It offers a higher level of resistance to nuisance nicks, cuts and abrasions and offers superior splash protection against irritating chemicals when compared to natural latex or vinyl equivalents. These gloves are just 4mls thin and provide excellent tactile sensitivity. After being worn for a short period of time, the glove conforms to your hand size for greater comfort and reduced perspiration. This special polymer formulation of nitrile does not allow adhesive label materials to stick to it. Thin nitrile exam gloves are three times more puncture resistant when tested against comparative natural latex and vinyl gloves. They are 91⁄2” long, ambidextrous and have textured fingers for a better grip. They come lightly powdered with cornstarch and now are also available powderless.

Decalcifiers.

Decalcifier SystemDecalcifier I is a unique decalcifying solution that has the ability to fix and decalcify at the same time. Needle biopsies may be completely fixed and decalcified in one hour or less. Small bone specimens and calcified arteries may be completely fixed and decalcified in approximately 2-4 hours. It is recommend to use 20 times the volume of the specimen. Following decalcification, the specimen is ready for processing without first having to wash. Tissues decalcified in this solution cut with ease and routine H&E techniques produce excellent stained sections. Larger specimens, 3 to 5 millimeters thick, can immediately be placed in Decalcifier I to fix and initiate decalcification overnight. The following morning, if the specimen is not yet decalcified, transfer it directly to Decalcifier II to complete demineralization that same day. The Surgipath Decalcifier I-II combination can save valuable time and more importantly, valuable specimens.

Fixatives.

FineFIXFineFIX has been formulated as a formalin-free, water-based fixative for conventional and microwave enhanced fixation. This alternative fixative is ideal for routine histological applications and molecular analysis.

When diluted with ethanol, its patented formulation of low toxicity additives overcome the drawbacks usually associated with the use of ethanol-based fixatives. FineFIX provides optimal preservation of tissue antigens, nuclear and cytoplasmic morphology and reduced lysis of red blood cells with preservation of the cytoplasmic membranes. By initiating earlier dehydration and fat extraction during fixation, FineFIX can reduce tissue processing times.

Although formalin-fixed tissues are a huge source of nucleic acids for molecular biological studies, the formation of cross-linkages by formalin makes extraction difficult. Recovery of RNA from tissue fixed in FineFIX has been shown to be greatly superior to that from snap frozen tissue as there is no cross-linkage formation.

The morphology of tissues fixed in FineFIX, processed conventionally or by microwaves, is of such high quality that it poses no difficulty for diagnosis. Shrinkage and vacuolisation are reduced to a fraction of that experienced with traditional ethanol fixation. Pyknotic nuclei are also absent. It is ideal for use with all routine and immunohistochemistry staining techniques and reduces the need for aggressive epitope retrieval.

FineFIX provides a real alternative for tissue fixation without all the hazards associated with formalin. The Workplace Exposure Limit (WEL) for FineFIX working solution is much higher than Formalin (see table), reducing the risks to laboratory staff from vapour exposure.

As an added benefit, FineFIX is delivered as a non-hazardous water-based concentrate negating the need for costly hazardous goods transport requirements. FineFix must be diluted with ethanol to form the working solution.

Sed-FixSed-Fix is a preservative and fixative containing polyethylene glycol. Sed-Fix can be mixed with equal parts of cell suspensions from all body sites. For maximum cell recovery, cell spreads should be air dried, the shrinkage being minimized by the precipitated polyethylene glycol. Following air drying, the cell spreads should be immersed for ten minutes in 95% ethanol to thoroughly remove the polyethylene glycol. Sed-Fix is available in a liquid concentrate to make one gallon and a ready-to-use working solution.
