Re:[Histonet] IF-fading retardants

From:AGrobe2555@aol.com



Carl,
I used to use "FluorSave" mounting medium from Calbiochem (Cat #  345789).  
This mounting medium "hardens" so the coverslip doesn't move  and you don't 
have to seal around the edges with nail polish.  It also kept  the signal from 
fading.  I still stored the slides horizontally at 4C or  -20C.  I wouldn't 
suggest try in to dehydrate through xylene and  coverslipping, as I suspect you 
would kill your signal.
