The Master Science Tissue Embedding & Cooling System pairs a heated paraffin embedding module with a separate cryo module, so tissue blocks are cast and chilled at one workstation. The two units stand side by side and can be serviced independently.
A 4 L paraffin chamber feeds the dispenser, and five heated zones are each controlled on their own channel up to 99 °C. The cryo module uses an inverter compressor and holds between +5 and -20 °C, reaching -28 °C in super cooling mode.

Key Benefits
- Ready when the shift starts: the Master Science Tissue Embedding & Cooling System switches on and off by weekly programme.
- No cross-heating: five zones are controlled independently.

- Quick block release: cryo plate down to -28 °C.
- Hands stay free: foot pedal controls paraffin flow.
Tissue is usually prepared beforehand in a Master Science automated tissue processor.

Common Problems and How This System Helps
How the Master Science Tissue Embedding & Cooling System eases embedding work:
- Waiting for wax to melt each morning: timed automatic start.
- Paraffin setting in the nozzle: separately heated dispenser.
- Slow block hardening: large cryo plate with super cooling mode.
- Whole station down for one repair: embedding and cryo modules are separate.
