Abstract:
In a first aspect, the invention relates to the use of a UV-polymerizable composition as an embedding medium for biological samples. The UV-polymerizable composition is a composition with a refractive index ranging from n=1.45 to n=1.6 after a polymerization process. In another aspect, the invention relates to a method for producing embedded biological samples using said UV-polymerizable composition and to the embedded biological samples themselves. The biological samples can be used in a wide variety of areas, such as diagnostics among others, and are suitable in particular for RNA-based diagnostics.
