Anti-Fade Mounting Medium (with DAPI) is a mounting reagent designed to retard fluorescence photobleaching and preserve signal intensity during long-term imaging. For immediate observation of samples, please select HY-K1048, a non-solidifying anti-fade mounting medium with DAPI. The 5 mL is defined as the base specification. All larger sizes correspond to incremental volumes of this base.

Description & Advantages

MCE AntiFade Mounting Medium (with DAPI) is a sealing reagent used to slow the fluorescence quenching. This reagent is suitable for immobilizing permeabilized cells or tissues, and can slow the fluorescence quenching of various common fluorescent dyes with simple operation and good anti-fluorescence quenching effect. This reagent contains DAPI, and can be used for DAPI staining of cell nuclei while sealing the sections.

Protocol

1. After fixation, permeabilization, and immunofluorescence staining of cells or tissues, complete the final wash with PBS or the appropriate wash buffer.

2. Carefully remove excess liquid around the specimen without allowing the sample to dry completely.

3. Apply an appropriate amount of AntiFade Mounting Medium (with DAPI) to fully cover the observation area.

4. Slowly place a coverslip over the sample, avoiding bubbles and allowing the mounting reagent to spread evenly.

5. Observe with a fluorescence or confocal microscope protected from light. DAPI counterstains nuclei during mounting.

Note: This product hardens to form a permanent rigid seal; after hardening, additional edge sealing such as nail polish is generally unnecessary, making it suitable for long-term storage and imaging. Protect the sample and reagent from light throughout the procedure.
