Citifluor’s new UVM mountants available Oct 9, 2008
Stansted, October 2008: Agar Scientific is pleased to announce the latest additions to the Citifluor range of antifadant mountant solutions for use in sample preparation for fluorescence microscopy.
The new light-curable uv-mountants are quick drying, easy to use and economical. They will help in cases where specimens move around or change shape on the slide thus making it difficult to home in on the area of interest. These mountants will rapidly fix specimens making microscopic examination much easier. There are many benefits for their use:
These new UVM solutions readily cure with desk-lights.
The high refractive index mountant (UVM-3) is totally halogen free (it should however only be used with fixed cross linked specimens).
The UVM-1 solution is ideal for samples being examined by transmission light microscopy and for fluorescence microscopy where fluorochrome fading is not a problem.
Citifluor’s products, antifadent mountant solutions and immersion oils are widely used.
