The product meets all safety standards (ABNT-NBR 14725) for professional use. <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-lg font-bold text-text-100 mt-1 -mb-1.5\">What is the difference between absolute alcohol and ordinary alcohol for histology?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>Absolute alcohol<\/strong> is 99.5% pure (practically anhydrous) and is essential for the complete dehydration of tissues. Common alcohols have a higher water content and are unsuitable for critical stages of histological processing. <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-lg font-bold text-text-100 mt-1 -mb-1.5\">How to store anhydrous ethyl alcohol correctly?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Keep in original airtight container in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place, away from sources of heat, ignition and oxidizing agents. Room temperature and atmospheric pressure are suitable. <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-lg font-bold text-text-100 mt-1 -mb-1.5\">Is EasyPath absolute alcohol compatible with automatic processors?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Yes, our formulation is fully compatible with automated histological processing equipment and complies with the strictest tissue dehydration protocols.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-lg font-bold text-text-100 mt-1 -mb-1.5\">What precautions should I take when disposing of it?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Never dispose of in ordinary waste or sewage. The product must be treated as hazardous waste in accordance with current environmental legislation (CONAMA 005\/1993, ABNT-NBR 10.004\/2004). Incineration or authorized reprocessing routes are recommended.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<ul>\n<li><strong>Rapid evaporation:<\/strong> Ideal for processes that require rapid drying of samples.<\/li>\n<li><strong>High purity:<\/strong> 99.5\u00b0GL alcohol content, ensuring effectiveness in chemical analysis.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Universal solvent:<\/strong> Effective in dissolving a wide variety of chemical substances.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Controlled use:<\/strong> Supplied in safe plastic bottles, minimizing the risk of breakage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Laboratory applications:<\/strong> Essential for preparing solutions and disinfecting surfaces.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7988,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[386],"product_tag":[839,838,837,836,498,500,841,269,805,819,840,820],"class_list":{"0":"post-9691","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-formaldehyde-alcohol-xylene","7":"product_tag-5-en","8":"product_tag-99-en","9":"product_tag-99-5-en","10":"product_tag-absolute-alcohol","11":"product_tag-alcohol-en","12":"product_tag-anhydrous","13":"product_tag-anhydrous-alcohol","14":"product_tag-histology","15":"product_tag-histopathology","16":"product_tag-laboratory","17":"product_tag-pathological-anatomy","18":"product_tag-solvent","20":"first","21":"instock","22":"shipping-taxable","23":"purchasable","24":"product-type-variable","25":"col-xs-6 col-sm-4","26":"col-md-3 col-lg-2","27":"un-6-cols"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/9691","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9691"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/9691\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17555,"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/9691\/revisions\/17555"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7988"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9691"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=9691"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=9691"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/easypath.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=9691"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
