Same paraffin for infiltration and embedding. Our choice is especially good
for bone because it is a harder paraffin and works well for soft tissues
even very thin sections i.g. 1 to 2 um. Since we do a great deal of bone
work, this has been a good choice. Tissue Prep 2 from ThermoFisher
Scientific.
We have used the Surgipath combination infiltration media followed by their
embedding media with great success.
