VECTASHIELD Antifade Mounting Medium with Propidium Iodide (PI), 10 ml

Description

VECTASHIELD Antifade Mounting Medium with PI, prevents rapid photobleaching of fluorescent proteins and fluorescent dyes. PI is a reddish nuclear counterstain with a broad excitation range at around 530 nm and emission at about 615 nm.

Features:

  • Ideal refractive index (1.45)
  • Ready-to-use - from the refrigerator to the benchtop
  • No warming necessary
  • Can be stored without sealing for long term analysis
  • Non-hardening formulation

The original VECTASHIELD Antifade Mounting Media does not solidify, but rather, remains a liquid on the slide, which can then be stored without sealing. If desired, coverslips can be sealed around the perimeter with nail polish or a plastic sealant. Mounted slides should be stored at 4°C and protected from light.
