Biopsy foam pads are used to hold biopsies in place and prevent them from being lost during processing. They are made of a specially formulated foam which is always verified for consistency throughout in order to achieve optimum solvent flow. Biopsy samples are sandwiched between two foam pads and are placed either in tissue capsules or cassettes* with metal or plastic lids.

Made of polyester urethane foam. Pads will resist temperatures from -40 °C to 121 °C.
