What does PAXgene Tissue STABILIZER contain?

PAXgene Tissue STABILIZER is used for transport or storage of tissue specimens fixed with the PAXgene Tissue FIX Container (50 mL). After fixation of tissue samples with the PAXgene Tissue FIX Container (50 mL), PAXgene Tissue FIX is removed and replaced by PAXgene Tissue STABILIZER within the same container. Nucleic acids, proteins and morphology of the sample are now stable up to 7 days at room temperature, or for longer periods at 2–8°C, or even at –20°C and –80°C. Stabilized samples can be embedded in paraffin for histological studies. PAXgene Tissue Kits and supplementary protocols provide efficient subsequent purification of RNA, miRNA, DNA, and/or proteins from the same sample. PAXgene Tissue STABILIZER Concentrate is only to be used in conjunction with tissue specimens previously fixed in PAXgene Tissue FIX.
