cbs tissue straw

CBS High Security Tissue Straw

Description / Use

Cryopreservation of tissue fragments.
Sterilized by irradiation.
Individually packaged in blister of 20 units.

Identification

The CBS™ High Security tissue straws can be identified by using LN2 resistant labels.

Filling and Sealing
Filling and sealing of the straw should be done in a controlled environment, such as a laminar flow hood.

set tdt

Set TDT®

Description / Use

The Set TDT® includes:

  • An outer sheath with a flexible extremity and 2 hysterometry guide-marks at 5.5 cm and 6.5 cm from the distal extremity.
  • A malleable metal stylet coated in polyethylene.
  • An extra-fine transfer catheter on a stainless steel micro tube of 0.50 mm in diameter in its proximal section for better handling.

In cervical stenosis, a thin malleable outer sheath and stylet can help overcome an obstacle before the loaded transfer catheter is gently and safely slid through the sheath.

frydman ultrasoft echo frydman ultrasoft

Frydman® Ultrasoft Echo Frydman® Ultrasoft

Description / Use

    The devices include:

  • An outer sheath with 6 guide-marks every centimeter.
  • A transfer catheter ultrasoft in its distal section and rigidified in its proximal section by an internal sheath for better handling.

The echogenic model has a beveled ring at its tip in brushed stainless steel visible on ultrasound images. When placed in the outer sheath, the transfer catheter sticks out by 4.5 cm from the distal extremity of the outer sheath. The length of the catheter inside the uterus can be evaluated from the insertion guide-marks near the base. The ultrasoft transfer catheter preserves the integrity of the endometrial lining. The stylet available separately is used to shape the outer sheath prior to its insertion and clear a difficult cervix more easily. The echogenic model optimizes the transfer conditions as the cervical canal and transfer site can be visualized.
