Abstract

Abstract Water-soluble tissue infiltrating and embedding compositions facilitating rapid preparation of tissue sections biopsic study comprising 50 to 60 percent of polyethylene glycol having a molecular weight of about 3700 and somewhat less than 50 percent of a mixture of nonionic surface active agents having varying consistency ranging from solid to semisolid and liquid consistencies together with small amounts of water soluble and water-insoluble waxes, whereby the hardness of the polyethylene glycol is reduced and hygroscopicity maintains substantially constant during seasonal variations of ambient temperature and humidity.
