About this product

Item #: NAT-HS200

Highlights

National Diagnostics Histo-Clear® is an innovative, xylene-free histological clearing agent designed to improve lab safety without compromising performance. Composed of high-purity d-Limonene distilled from oranges, this 1-gallon solution offers a safer alternative to xylene, reducing exposure to harsh chemicals while maintaining high-quality results in tissue processing.

Key Features:

Xylene-Free Formulation: Composed of purified d-Limonene derived from citrus, Histo-Clear® replaces xylene, eliminating exposure to harmful fumes and promoting a safer work environment.
Enhanced Tissue Integrity: Leaves tissue less brittle than xylene, allowing easier cutting of thin sections and prolonging the life of microtome blades, making it ideal for high-precision histological preparations.
Superior Staining Quality: Boosts acidophilic stain vibrance, enhancing detail and contrast in tissue structures. Particularly improves Mayer’s Hematoxylin staining with a brighter Eosin background for optimal analysis.
Direct Xylene Substitute: Compatible with manual and automated tissue processing systems, providing labs with a seamless transition from xylene-based protocols.

Benefits of Histo-Clear® Substitute for Xylene:

Improved Lab Safety: With its xylene-free composition, Histo-Clear® reduces harmful chemical exposure, enhancing lab safety and comfort, and can be an alternative histology-clearing product.
Better Sample Quality: Ensures tissue remains less hard and brittle, reducing the likelihood of sample damage and ensuring cleaner, more accurate cuts.
Enhanced Clarity and Color: Enhances stain vibrancy and contrast, making structures more visible and facilitating precise diagnostic interpretations.
Streamlined Lab Integration: Substitutes directly for xylene, enabling quick adoption into existing lab protocols with minimal adjustment.
