Abstract: A container contains a tissue sample tray with tissue samples disposed thereon. The container fits in a radiograph machine and thereby allows the tissue samples to be radiographically imaged. The container also defines openings allowing fixation fluid to immerse the tissue samples in the container when the container is immersed in the fixation fluid. The container includes a base and a lid. The base includes a floor and sidewalls that cooperate to define a compartment, which is configured to receive a tissue sample tray. A plurality of bosses extend upwardly from the floor and are configured to maintain positioning of a tissue sample tray received in the compartment. The lid is configured to enable placement of a tissue sample tray in the compartment when the lid is open. The lid is configured to enclose a tissue sample tray in the compartment when the lid is closed.

Abstract: A control method and a control apparatus for a paraffin dispenser in an embedder, a paraffin dispenser and an embedder are provided. The control method includes: collecting information of a current mold so as to acquire an identification of the current mold; determining whether the identification of the current mold is correct; and controlling the paraffin dispenser to pour paraffin into the current mold, when it is determined that the identification of the current mold is correct.

Abstract: An embedder for embedding specimens in paraffin wax includes: a body having a paraffin reservoir for containing the paraffin wax; and a mobile dispenser disposed on the body, capable of being taken off from the body, and defining an inlet and an outlet, the inlet being communicated with the paraffin reservoir via a connecting tube so as to supply the paraffin wax in the paraffin reservoir to the mobile dispenser via the connecting tube, the mobile dispenser dispensing the paraffin wax via the outlet. With the embedder according to embodiments of the present invention, by means of the mobile dispenser detachably connected with the body, the embedder is flexible to use, convenient to operate, and high in efficiency.

Abstract: An embedder is provided. The embedder includes a body having a working stand; a paraffin reservoir disposed in the body; a paraffin dispenser disposed on the body and connected with the paraffin reservoir; a heated working plate disposed on the working stand; a cooling plate disposed on the working stand; a tray disposed on the working stand; and a ceramic layer at least formed on an inner wall surface of the tray. With the embedder according to the present invention, by coating the ceramic layer on the inner wall surface of the tray to form an anti-scratch protective layer, when removing solidified paraffin wax on the inner wall surface of the tray, it is possible to avoid scratching the inner wall surface of the tray so as to avoid the damage to the surface of the tray.
