      Description
      Catalogue Number108298
      OverviewXylene is the gold standard and most common aromatic solvent which has been used for decades in routine histoprocessing, deparaffination, and clarification applications. A mixture of the ortho-, meta- and para- isomers provides for a higher degree of hydrophobicity prior to mounting and coverslipping. Histological grade Xylene was developed to be a robust clearing agent in both histological and cytological applications. It is a critical raw material in all histological staining procedures. It supports the QA process in Pathology. It is a CE-certified, IVD product.
