We use AquaPerm mounting medium (30 mls) from Shandon for all of our aqueous
mounting.  No problems since we started several years ago.

Hi Histonetters!

Can anyone out there suggest an aqueous mounting media that can be used on
sections when methylene blue has been used as the counterstain?  I have
tried several but they all leach the blue out of the section.

Vendors welcome to reply!

Thanks!
