Tissue embedding mould IVD, single-use refers to a plastic container designed to hold tissue specimens during the embedding process, where the tissue is encased in a solid medium such as paraffin wax to form a block for sectioning. This enables the preparation of thin tissue slices for microscopic examination in histology and pathology workflows.
As a single-use in vitro diagnostic device, it is intended for one-time application to prevent cross-contamination between specimens. Regulatory oversight focuses on its role in sample preparation rather than direct patient contact, with classification and supply requirements based on its function as a disposable tool in laboratory settings.
