General description

Kaiser′s glycerol gelatin - phenol-free for microscopy, is an aqueous, phenol-free mounting medium consisting of gelatine and glycerol, and is used primarily in the mounting of stained histology specimens (e. g. HEMATOGNOST Fe - staining kit (Product number 1.12084). The pH of the product lies in the neutral range. Prior to use, the mounting medium is melted in the heating cabinet at approx. 40 °C and is dropped onto the specimen from the practical dropping bottle. The preservative phenol has been replaced with a proprietary compound that is more environmentally friendly. This affords the unique advantage of eliminating phenol fumes when the medium is heated before use. CE-certified, IVD aqueous mounting media developed specifically for use in histological applications is essential in the support of formal quality assurance programs to monitor staining performance in pathology laboratories. For more details, please see instructions for use (IFU). The IFU can be downloaded from this webpage.
