LR Gold embedding kit

The London Resin Company's acrylic "LR Gold" is the resin of choice when the antigenicity of the tissue is quite fragile. LR Gold is cured by the blue fraction of white light and this is possible at low temperatures. LR Gold is especially designed for low temperature (-25°C) embedding of fresh or lightly aldehyde-fixed tissue. Choice of initiator will determine polymerisation method - UV to intense white light. A PVP concentration above 20% may improve EM morphology but can also result in very high viscosities at low temperatures.Embedding kit consists of:500ml LR Gold Resin (C028) - HAZARD100g Polyvinyl pyrolidone (C029) - HAZARD50g Benzoyl Peroxide (C030) - UN3106 CLASS 5.2 PG III50g Benzil - HAZARD
