A student in my lab is doing some work in another lab here and having
some problems with coverslipping their H&E sections. They are using
HistoClear 1X as a clearing agent and Cytoseal mounting medium. From
looking at the coverslipped slides I'm guessing that these two
products are not compatible.
The mounting medium is sort of clumping up under coverslips and has a
hazy appearance. Yes, I did also find a bit of water in their
HistoClear as well.
Does anybody else have any experience with HistoClear 1X and/or does
anybody know what mounting medium is good to use with the product? I
suggested that they call the company who manufactures HistoClear but
I don't know if they have done that yet.
Thanks,
Andi Grantham
