Product description

Toluene-based mounting medium for permanent cover slip adhesion with low viscosity and stable refractive index.

Fisher Scientific Permount is a toluene-based synthetic resin mounting medium designed for the permanent adhesion of cover slips to microscope slides, ensuring the long-term preservation of specimens.

Low viscosity: Provides a thinner adhesive layer, enhancing optical clarity and facilitating bubble-free preparations.
Optimal refractive index: Closely matches that of fixed proteins, minimising optical imperfections such as diffraction halos.
Versatile application: Suitable for mounting cover slips to slides with both thick and thin specimens.
Colour stability: Maintains the integrity of biological dyes without causing colour shifts.
Durability: Retains cohesiveness, adhesive quality, and colour over time, preventing degradation.
Preservation of stains: Ensures minimal fading of most biological dyes when slides are stored in darkness.

This mounting medium is widely utilised in histology, cytology, and biotechnology laboratories for the preparation and preservation of microscopic specimens. It is commonly employed in university labs, biomedical research centres, and clinical environments. Since its introduction, Fisher Scientific Permount has remained a trusted choice for researchers seeking reliable and long-lasting slide preparations.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
