Mounting Media
To preserve a stained section for microscopy, it is mounted on a clear glass slide and covered with a thin coverslip. The slide and coverslip must be free of optical distortions, to avoid viewing artefacts.
CellPath’s mounting media adds favourable properties to the process, including optimisation of the refractive index to match that of the glass slide, prevention of photobleaching, and preservation of the samples to allow for long-term archiving.
