EMS Shield Mount  is an aqueous non-permanent, low viscosity mounting medium for immunofluorescence. This unique formula prevents rapid photobleaching of FITC, Texas Red, AMCA, Cy2, Cy3, Cy5, Alexa fluoro 488, Alexa fluoro 594, Green fluorescent protein (GFP), tetramethyly rhodamine and Redox. The fluorescence is retained during storage at 4°C in the dark.

Supplier: Mopec

Mopec’s Formaway formalin neutralizing powder safely and easily neutralizes spent formalin waste to a non-hazardous and non-toxic solution in only 20 minutes. Contents are emptied directly into 1 gallon of spent 10% Formalin or 4% Glutaldehyde, reducing risk exposure to lab personnel. This unique formula also eliminates drain-clogging polymers.

UV Mount Medium is a mounting medium that is designed to match the refractive index of JB-4 embedded sections

Supplier: Electron Microscopy Sciences

In-Situ mounting medium is a unique mounting medium designed for permanent preservation of tissue sections and cell smear with alkaline phosphatase chromogens like NBT/BCIP and red stain. It is ideal for mounting tissues and cell smears.

Hydromount™ is the traditional choice whenever a nonfluorescing aqueous medium is needed. Hydromount™ is water-based and is suitable for mounting specimens that have been processed in water. Hydromount™ is effective for frozen sections, amyloid, and immunofluorescent staining procedures. Should it become necessary, Hydromount™ may be removed by soaking the slides in warm saline.

Epo-Tek® H22 is a two component, silver-filled epoxy system.

Supplier: Electron Microscopy Sciences

A water soluble embedding media which is based on Glycol Methacrylate (GMA) plastic embedding. It is intended for use in preparing samples for high resolution microscopes (HRLM). The catalyzed monomer acts as a dehydration and infiltration agent. Therefore, complete dehydration through 100% ethanol is not necessary although recommended for large or dense tissues. Conventional paraffin sections have a greater degree of shrinkage and produce inadequate morphology when compared to JB-4.JB-4 Kit Consists of 800 mL Solution A, 30 mL Solution B, and 12 g Catalyst.

Technovit® 4000 is the low shrinkage embedding medium

Supplier: Diagnostic Biosystems

Elite mini PAP pen is a special marking pen that provides a thin film-like green-tinged hydrophobic barrier when a circle is drawn around a specimen on a slide. This water repellent barrier keeps staining reagents localized on the tissue sections, prevents mixing of reagents when differentially staining two sections on the same slide, and allows use of less reagents per section.

The HistoTainer™ (Empty Vials, see page 482) is half filled with 10% Neutral Buffered Formalin as a fixative. These ready-to-use prefilled containers are timer saving and make your work more efficient.

Supplier: Electron Microscopy Sciences

JB-4 Plus offers all of the same features as JB-4 except it produces less of an exothermic reaction than JB4 which is good for temperature sensitive tissues

Supplier: AAT Bioquest

When exposed to excitation light, fluorescence intensity of dyes decreases due to their photooxidation or other photoreactions.

Can be used on all types of specimens

Supplier: Electron Microscopy Sciences

Chemkit is arranged to enable a laboratory to perform standard preparations of biological specimens.

Supplier: Electron Microscopy Sciences

Hard-Plus Resin-812 is supplied only as a premix kit

Supplier: Electron Microscopy Sciences

The kit consists of two components, equal amount, very low viscosity, (~65 cps), in convenient dispenser top bottles. To prepare the embedding resin, just mix equal amounts of the two components. The resin readily infiltrates into specimen and polymerizes to a clear, hard block overnight at 60°C.

Supplier: Mopec

Mopec’s Formaway Formalin Neutralizing Absorbent Pad (F-NAP) was designed to reduce formaldehyde vapors while dissecting tissue, transferring tissue from containers of formalin, and transporting or storing tissue in containers of formalin, by absorbing and neutralizing formalin.

Supplier: Mopec

Applied after a specimen is marked with a dye, Melody is a quick drying fixative spray that forms a protective layer on the marked surface while still allowing the tissue processing reagents to penetrate the tissue. Melody is unique to Mopec and can be used with all dye colors and on all specimen types. The chemistry of pigments, especially those seen in yellow, orange and red tissue marking dyes manufactured by alternative suppliers often suffer during tissue processing protocols.

Supplier: Electron Microscopy Sciences

DPX Mountant is a mixture of Distyrene, a plasticizer, and xylene. It is a colorless synthetic resin mounting media which replaces Xylene-Balsam. It preserves the stain and dries quickly.
