Beth,
I have no idea.  I was introduced to Crystalmount during my days with the
Code-On immuno stainer.  I don't know id Dr. Dave Briggoti had something to
say about that or not.  I didn't know you could coverslip over wet
Crystalmount until I started working here at Santa Rosa.  See, you learn
something new every time.
