Abstract

A tamper for making paraffin blocks for histology may include a pliable tamper head and a handle. The handle may be permanently or removably attached to the tamper by using screws, magnets, or the like. The tamper may be made from a pliable material, such as a silicone rubber, with improved thermal transfer and high latent heat. In use, the tamper may be warmed in advance to a working temperature by placing the tamper on a hot plate of the embedding station or on a dedicated smaller hot plate. Alternatively, the tamper may be heated with an electric resistive element, a thermoelectric device, or an electric induction coil.
