Set Of Citifluor CFPVOH AND AF100

EMS Catalog #17978-35

CFPVOH is an aqueous solution of poly(vinyl alcohol) and is to be used when the specimen is required in a permanent (solid) mountant. Simply apply the requisite amount of solution to the sample on the slide and allow to dry in the air. If drying is carried out too rapidly, a "wrinkled" film may result.

AF100 is designed to be used with the CFPVOH to give a solid mountant solution, which should retard the fading of fluorescence of fluorescently labeled specimens. The solutions should be mixed in the ration of 9 parts of CFPVOH to 1 part of AF100. The resulting solution, after thorough mixing, may be applied to the specimen and then allowed to dry in air. It is best to make up the solution containing both components when required, as it does not keep well on storage.
