Taab Replacement Resin for Spurr

ERL 4206 is no longer manufactured. As this is a major component of the Spurr resin kit, it means that this resin could soon become unavailable. To overcome this loss TAAB has developed a new resin to replace Spurr.

This is TAAB`s Low Vicosity resin (TLV). Please contact us for data sheets and a free-of-charge sample. TAAB has produced a resin and a range of premix resin kits to replace the Spurr range of products.

Formaldehyde 16% w/v (methanol free)

A more rapid and efficient fixative used in conjunction with our glutaraldehyde and Acrolein fixatives. It will fix delicate tissues such as brain in vascular perfusion. Ultra pure formaldeyde avoids the problem of depolymerising paraformaldehyde. It can be used in the Karnovsky method with a buffer of choice.
