We have an extensive range of chemicals carefully chosen for EM and LM use including a wide selection of embedding resins. The purity of the chemicals supplied is appropriate to LM and EM techniques.
The chemicals and mixtures offered by Agar Scientific are labelled with the appropriate hazard symbols and risk and safety phrases in accordance with current UK regulations and EC directives. The absence of symbols or risk and safety phrases should not be taken to indicate that the product is non-hazardous, particularly since new data and legislation requirements are always under review. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS/SDS) are available to download to assist in the safe handling and storage of products and the completion of any requirements under COSHH. Our web entries indicate the main hazards, providing guidance towards safe handling, storage and shipping.
Our products are intended for use only by qualified personnel in laboratory or industrial conditions. They are not intended for use by private individuals or in domestic environments.
