FluoProtect • embedding • fluorescence microscopy

Conservation, protection and co-staining.

Ready-to-use and easy to handle.

FluoProtect is a mounting and embedding medium for fluorescence microscopy. It is based on the well-established embedding medium Mowiol, valued for reliable embedding properties and practical handling in routine microscopy workflows.

The product line is available as pure embedding medium and in variants containing nuclear dyes for simultaneous counterstaining. This makes FluoProtect useful when microscopy samples need to be mounted, protected and documented with a defined nuclear reference signal.

 
Hypermol FluoProtect mounting medium
 
Mount and preserve
Designed for embedding fluorescence samples after staining and preparing them for microscopy documentation.
 
Optional nuclear staining
Available with selected nuclear dyes to combine mounting and nuclear counterstaining in one workflow.

Embedding medium for protected fluorescence samples

After staining, the mounting step is critical for sample stability, imaging quality and long-term documentation. A suitable embedding medium should preserve the sample geometry, support clear optical inspection and help maintain fluorescence signals during microscopy.

FluoProtect is designed for laboratories that need a dependable and easy-to-use mounting solution for fluorescence microscopy. Depending on the selected variant, it can also provide nuclear counterstaining, reducing the need for a separate staining step when a nuclear reference channel is required.

Key advantages
  • Ready-to-use mounting and embedding medium.
  • Based on the established Mowiol embedding principle.
  • Available as pure medium or with nuclear counterstains.
  • Useful for fluorescence microscopy sample preparation.
  • Convenient for routine imaging and documentation workflows.
Common applications
  • Mounting of stained cell and protein samples.
  • Fluorescence microscopy documentation.
  • Nuclear counterstaining with selected product variants.
  • Multi-channel imaging workflows requiring a nuclear reference.
  • Routine coverslip and slide preparation after staining.
 
Product value
FluoProtect helps combine sample conservation, embedding and optional counterstaining in a practical microscopy workflow. It is especially useful when samples should be mounted efficiently and documented with consistent fluorescence conditions.

Workflow efficiency
Ready-to-use handling reduces preparation time after staining and supports consistent sample mounting across experiments, users and slide series.
Choose the right variant
Use the pure medium when no additional nuclear channel is needed, or select a dye-containing version when nuclear counterstaining should be included in the mounting step.
Imaging consistency
A defined mounting medium helps reduce variability in sample preparation and supports comparable imaging conditions across replicate slides.
