Rapid & Reliable Histological Fixation with Carnoy’s

Carnoy’s Fixative (3:1 ethanol to chloroform) is a classic, non-aqueous fixative used predominantly in histology and cytogenetics. Known for its ability to preserve nuclear structures, nucleic acids, and glycogen, it delivers quick and consistent results—perfect for high-precision microscopy workflows.

Product Variation:

  • Carnoy’s Fixative – 3:1 (Ethanol:Chloroform) 
  • Carnoy’s Fixative with Acetic Acid – Buffered Option 
  • Lancer Brand – Laboratory Grade Fixatives 

Field-Tested Use Cases

  • Histology & Cytology Labs – Optimal for chromosome spreads, Pap smears, and rapid tissue dehydration 
  • Research & Molecular Biology – Preserves DNA integrity for PCR or sequencing; functions as a dehydrating fixative during embedding 
  • Specialized Applications – Enhances lymph node visibility in cadaver dissections and is occasionally used post-surgical excision (e.g., keratocyst treatment)
