4% paraformaldehyde fixative (PFA) is mainly composed of paraformaldehyde, phosphate, deionized water, etc., with a pH value of 7.2~7.4. It is a widely used solution for fixing biological samples such as tissues, tissue sections, and cells in immunohistochemistry and other detection methods. It can effectively protect the morphology and structure of tissues and cells as well as nucleic acids.
Operation steps (for reference only)
Generally, the fixed time for tissues should be controlled within 4-12 hours, and for large specimens, the fixed time should be appropriately extended. The fixed time for cultured cells or cell slides should be controlled within 10-15 minutes, except in special circumstances.
Transport and store at room temperature, with a validity period of 1 year.
