VectaMount® PT Permanent Mounting Medium (H-5600-60)

Description

VectaMount PT Permanent Mounting Medium is a specially formulated, optically clear solution for permanent preservation of histochemical stains or precipitable enzyme substrates in tissue sections or cell preparations.

Our mounting medium has undergone extensive testing and validation with all Vector Laboratories substrates and counterstains so you can confidently preserve your samples.

Features:

• Permanent, Non-Aqueous Mounting: Provides stable, long-term preservation of specimens without the limitations associated with aqueous media.
• Color Preservation: VectaMount PT has been validated with Vector Laboratories’ substrates and counterstains, preserving the vibrant colors over time without loss of intensity or color shifts.
• Exceptional Optical Clarity: With an ideal refractive index (1.52), VectaMount PT ensures clear, artifact-free imaging.
• Reliable Long-Term Stability: Retains consistent adhesive strength, cohesive integrity, and color stability even during extended storage periods.
• Easy Application: Facilitates a uniform, thin mounting layer to enhance optical quality and simplify slide preparation.
• Versatile Usage: Effectively secures coverslips to both thin and thick specimens.
