Embedding Cassette

Cassettes with attached lid and square holes with a double closure system to guarantee a perfect lock-up during the processing steps.

The sample’s identification is possible thanks to the wizen surface on three cassette’s sides. These surfaces can be written with pencils, histology pens (11-50 or 11-400) and they’re compatible with automatic cassettes printers Leica IP and Sakura Autowrite.

Biopsy cassettes are manufactured with our best technical skills, therefore, due to the complexity of the details themselves and the type of material used, is to be considered a physiological quantity of defective cassettes equal to 5,000 PPM (Parts Per Million), corresponding to a percentage of 0.5%. Within this amount, Bio-Optica does not accept complaints and / or requests for warranty replacement.
