Zyagen offers the largest selection of paraffin and frozen sections of rat and mouse adult tissues. Tissue sections are freshly made and ideal for immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization.

Paraffin Sections: Organs are  freshly harvested from adult Sprague Dawley rats and  CD1 mice, cut in small pieces, fixed for 10-24 hr in 10% neutral buffered formalin or 4% paraformeldehyde (upon the client request), and embedded in paraffin. Paraffin blocks are sectioned at a thickness of 5-7 microns and mounted on slides treated for adherence. Each slide contains 2-4 sections. Paraffin sections are shipped at room temperature in tightly closed slide boxes or slide mailers.

Frozen Sections: Organs are  freshly harvested from adult Sprague Dawley rats and CD1 mice, snapped frozen in O.C.T. medium, sectioned at a thickness of 7-10 microns,  and mounted on slides treated for adherence. Each slide contains 2 sections. Frozen sections are shipped in tightly closed slide boxes or slide mailers on dry ice. Fixed and cryoprotected in sucrose frozen sections are also available upon request.

 Paraffin and frozen sections from animals perifused with cold 4% paraformaldehyde or buffered formalin are also available  upon request. Contact customer service for more information.

Rat and mouse strain: Tissue sections are routinely collected from Sprague Dawley rats and  CD1 mice.  Contact us for the availability of tissue sections of other strains (inbred, outbred, mutant, hybrid, transgenic).

Applications: Paraffin and frozen brain tissue sections are prepared in RNase-, DNase-free environment and are ideal for  immunohistochemistry and  in situ hybridization.
