About Permount Mounting Medium
Permount is a toluene-based synthetic resin mounting medium that is ideal for rapid mounting and long term storage of slides. Its low viscosity allows for a thinner mounting layer offering better optical quality and bubble-free preparations. It has a refractive index near that of a fixed protein which helps to keep images free of distortion. Use for mounting coverslips to slides with thick or thin specimens. Permount preserves most biological stains with little or no fading when the slides are stored in darkness. It contains an anti-oxidant to prevent the formation of annular rings and its high softening point (155 degree C/311 degree F) makes it suitable for microprojection.
