Description

BioMarq AQ-Mount  is used to coverslip slides of tissue sections and cell smears with peroxidase and alkaline phosphatase chromogens, Fast-Red, AEC & others that cannot be dehydrated with organic solvents. AQ-Mount hardens and polymerizes to protect aqueous-based chromogens from fading when they are permanently mounted.

BioMarq AQ-Mount is a crystal clear Aqueous mounting medium providing superior optical clarity and preserving most biological stains with little or no fading when slides are stored in light tight containers. AQ –Mount is compatible for use with peroxidase and alkaline phosphatase chromogens, Fast-Red, BCIP/NBT, BCIP/INT, AEC, DAB and Nuclear fast red counterstain. AQ-Mount is NOT SUITABLE for use with H&E, Methylene blue or Methyl green counterstains. AQ-Mount is not advised on frozen tissue sections with high lipid content such as brain, or tissue sections undergoing necrosis.
