Invitrogen™ SlowFade™ Glass Soft-Set Antifade Mountant
SlowFade Glass Antifade Mountant is a glycerol-based, ready-to-use, non-curing mountant applied directly to fluorescently labeled cell or tissue samples on microscope slides.
Brand: Invitrogen™ S36917
Description
- A glycerol-based, ready-to-use, non-curing mountant applied directly to fluorescently labeled cell or tissue samples on microscope slides
- Formulated to have a refractive index of 1.52 for sharper images, and antifade components to resist photobleaching
- Results in sharp, bright images with almost any fluorophore and wide-field, confocal, or super-resolution microscopes, at focal depths of 0–500 μm
- Mountant is non-curing, allowing cells to be imaged immediately after mounting, without any of the adverse effects on cell morphology that a curing mountant might cause
- It comes ready to use - just apply a drop to the sample, add a coverslip, and image
- Available with or without DAPI nuclear stain
- Prolong Glass Antifade Mountant is recommended if a curing, hard-set mountant is needed, also with a refractive index of 1.52 for years of slide storage
Features of SlowFade Glass Antifade Mountant include:
- Ready-to-use, glycerol-based, non-curing antifade mountant
- Refractive index of 1.52, with minimized spherical aberrations
- Up to three times better axial resolution compared to regular mountant
- Visible tissue optical clearing, even in sections up to 1 mm thick
- Sharp, bright images at any focal depth from 0 to 500 μm
