Decalcifier standard, 2.5 l, plastic

Intended for structured formulation workflows, the Decalcifier Standard, a 2.5L plastic container of ready-to-use reagent, serves as a crucial tool in histology processes. This solution, comprising trichloroacetic acid and formalin, facilitates decalcification of tissues containing hard materials like bones or keratin. However, it's essential to ensure proper fixation prior to decalcification due to potential morphological alterations caused by trichloroacetic acid in unfixed tissue. The duration of decalcification varies depending on the specimen's size and type; smaller bones typically require 1-2 days for complete decalcification. While this decalcifier offers some fixing qualities, it's not recommended for immunological applications. For such purposes, consider using our Decalcifier Soft based on EDTA instead.
