Frequently Asked Questions
What concentration of formalin are these containers prefilled with?
Each container is charged with 10% neutral buffered formalin (NBF), the standard fixative for routine histology and anatomic pathology specimen preservation.
How much formalin is in each container?
Each unit is filled to roughly half its labeled volume — for example, the 60 mL container holds 30 mL of NBF and the 120 mL holds 60 mL — leaving headroom for the specimen and proper fixative-to-tissue ratio.
Is the click-close lid leakproof for transport?
Yes. The Tite-Rite click-close lid seals positively to minimize formalin leakage during specimen courier transport and handling between collection and processing.
Which container is wide mouth?
The 90 mL size (SKU 6525FL) features a wide-mouth opening for easier insertion of larger or irregularly shaped tissue specimens.
