Save time and reagent costs with this new product from Vector Laboratories!
Non-aqueous mounting for IHC without the need for dehydration & clearing protocols.
VectaMount® Express saves time and reagent costs
VectaMount® Express is a non-aqueous clearing and mounting medium enabling the rapid mounting of cell and tissue specimens following immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining.
This novel formulation is engineered to enable mounting directly following staining, saving time by eliminating the need for extensive ethanol and clearing washes prior to coverslipping. Just stain your slides as per your usual workflow, briefly wash in isopropyl alcohol, and coverslip.
