The 150 mL format is specified for colectomy segments, appendectomy specimens, large excisional biopsies, skin ellipses, and other surgical resection specimens where the 120 mL container cannot maintain the recommended fixative-to-tissue volume ratio. Pathology grossing stations standardize the 150 mL container as the largest-format container for same-day submission of outpatient surgical specimens. Long-term archival of fixed tissue blocks in pathology archives and museum collections uses the 150 mL threaded container for its combination of large capacity and secure re-sealable threaded closure.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eU.S. Manufacturing, Quality \u0026amp; Institutional Procurement\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eCaplugs® Evergreen products are manufactured in the United States under ISO 9001 quality management from FDA-compliant, food-contact-grade resins.
