Product Specification

Description

  • Polyvinyl alcohol is a water soluble plastic which when combined with Schaudin’s fixative provides an excellent preservative-fixative for protozoan trophozoites

  • Low viscosity mixture allows easier miscibility of the specimen, better fixation due to faster penetration, faster drying and superior film clarity
