Biotim CoverGrip ™ Coverslip Sealant

Biotium’s CoverGrip Sealant is the first product specifically designed for sealing the edges of wet-mounted coverslips for fluorescence microscopy.

Unlike nail polish, CoverGrip Coverslip Sealant contains no ingredients that can leach into aqueous mounting medium and affect specimen fluorescence.

CoverGrip Coverslip Sealant is made with d-limonene, a natural, environmentally-friendly solvent with a pleasant citrus aroma, and dries to form a clear, hard, durable seal along the edges of the coverslip.
