[Histonet] Tape transfer sections and IHC

[Instrumedics]

Anita,
Your  memory is excellent and in fact we did develop a mounting medium.
CureMount is a  mounting medium  of low viscosity, which makes the 
background virtually invisible and the stained structures stand out 
beautifully. The refractive index (1.55) of the cured mounting medium 
matches the refractive index of the section.

CureMount I (for frozen sections) and CureMount II (for paraffin sections) 
is dispensed onto
the slide and the slide is coverslipped. The slide is placed under the
CureMount Curing Lamp for 20 seconds. The slide is "dry" and can be archived
the same day.

If you have questions please call. 800-237-2772

Bernice
