Dear confocalists,
Today I came across a new aqueous-based mounting medium recently introduced by EM sciences (in the USA) and Citifluor (in the UK). They claim it has a refractive index of 1.52, i.e., perfectly matched to oil/glass.
It is being sold in 3 flavors, CFM-1, CFM-2, CFM-3. These vary in pH and antifade content. Sounds promising. Has anybody tried these?
