[Histonet] RE: fluorescent microscope bulbs

[Melissa Gonzalez]

Lester,
I use Ushio or Osram. 
Available for 200 hours of life or 300.

You should be able to order them from your local microscope rep. Or
google them and you will see suppliers.

Any recommended vendors for fluorescent microscope bulbs? Also, since
these contain mercury, what disposal methods do you use?

 

Thanks,
