MicroPoint™ Scissors System

A new concept in scissor technology. MicroPoint scissors can be used for suture or tissue, and they are manufactured without rings which eliminates the problems with right handed or left handed users. Scissors do not cut by cutting. They cut by shearing.

Features

• They have three times the shearing angle to reduce "tissue crushing"
• They last far longer than ordinary scissors
• O.R. Castro-Viejo quality at a floor-grade price
• They offer consistent cutting at the tip
• The blades cannot work loose
• The contact between the blades remains constant
• Ambidextrous: perfect in right and left hands
• Easy to pickup and use, no clumsy rings
• Adjustable shearing contact
• Lifetime Guarantee: All MicroPoint™ Scissors are guaranteed for life against rust, breakage and rivet loosening

LASNER-DaMAN Forceps

Uncompromised slip resistant with automatic tissue manipulation.

Up until now, you were faced with two choices in tissue forceps: rat toothed forceps that hold by penetrating a small zone of tissue, or serrated forceps that grasp by inadvertently crushing a broader area. Somehow, both can lead to microvascular damage. Pressure controlled Lasner-DaMan Tissue Forceps virtually eliminates the penetration or crushing of fragile tissue while providing uncompromised slip resistance.

• Ergonomic Featherlite™ spring handle relieves excess pressure and mechanical stress for ideal compression in either hand
• Patented twisted I-beam design with three point fixation that provides stability
• Micro cross-cut carbide jaws provide an extraordinary grip on tissue and suture needles
• Adjustable auto-lock feature permits auto-retention of tissue

"Blue Wax" Tissue Processing Discs

Makes Tissue Processing Easy & Quick

With a clean blue wax surface, these discs can be used for processing, inspecting, & documenting tissue pathology. Blue wax is specially formulated to provide the proper consistency to allow pins to stick firmly and be easily removed. Simply layout, pin, & trim the tissue.

These discs are available in three sizes: Small (2"), Medium (2¾") and Large (4"). All sizes are ¼" thick.

Add a dissection tray with a wax base pinning surface for detailed dissections. The tray measures 9½" x 7" x 1".

"Blue Wax" Dissection Tray

A dissection tray with a wax base pinning surface for detailed dissections

These trays are specially formulated to allow pins to stick firmly and be easily removed. They are made using a completely environmentally safe wax product, instead of the "black wax" product used in most dissection trays. Blue wax contains no toxic chemicals, and no fire, health or reactivity hazards are associated with it.

Blue wax can be heated to renew the surface and the dissection tray can be reused several times. It measures 9½" (L) x 7" (W) x 1" (H).
