ABSTRACT:
Forceps used in handling laboratory tissue samples being embedded in paraffin are prevented from accumulating congealed paraffin by maintaining the temperature of the grasping portions of the forceps above the point at which the paraffin remains liquid. Electrical resistance heaters are attached to the forceps, and these are energized by an appropriate electric circuit.
