What is it used for?

So, what is Histo-Par® paraffin wax used for? Well, it is an essential tool for biopsies – one of the most important diagnostic tests in modern medicine. When a biopsy is carried out, the tissue needs to be sliced very thinly and then examined under a microscope. A high-quality wax allows for that tissue to be sliced, all while ensuring that it is left intact enough that the medical professional can determine the most appropriate course of action for their patient. Here at the leading Histo-Par® paraffin wax supplier, we know how important it is to have a wax that you can rely on time and time again in these situations – and ours is the perfect candidate.
