Loctite UV 357 polymerised glass adhesive as a section mounting medium.

Loctite UV 357 polymerised glass adhesive as a section mounting medium.

The permanent encapsulation of cell monolayers and histological sections on to microscope slides is usually performed using a plastic and solvent system such as XAM or DPX (British Drug Houses, Poole, Dorset UK). Because of the solubility of some of the coloured stain and reaction products increasingly used in newer enzyme substrate based staining techniques and the damage caused to sections fr...

Polystyrene mounting medium.

Polystyrene mounting medium obtainable Ltd, 20 Du The medium described by Kirkpatrick One pounc and Lendrum (1939) and named by them mountant DPX (Distrene plasticised in xylene) was (75°% one replaced by a better formula in 1941. This medium BPS (butyl phthalate plasticised styrene) has given excellent and economical service until recently. The current trouble was not due to the makers of the ...

Circuit-board Mounting Using Double-sided Adhesive Tape

In this paper, a method of using double-sided adhesive tape when mounting microwave circuit-boards is discussed. In particular, one type of adhesive tape with good features is described. The tapemounting is simple and fast to use and it is cheap. The tape that was used is soft and it can handle both high and low temperatures. These two features make the tape useful in places where parts with di...

UV-ozone modification of plasma-polymerised acetonitrile films for enhanced cell attachment.

Plasma polymerisation is of great interest for modifying the surface properties of biomedical devices in order to control, for example, protein adsorption and cell attachment. In this paper we present results for plasma-polymerised acetonitrile deposited onto silicon or polystyrene substrates. The chemistry of films deposited under a range of experimental conditions was studied by X-ray photoel...
