• Stains 
Fronine specialises in the manufacture of preformulated stains, made with certified powders, reliable liquid solutions & fixatives. We offer a comprehensive range of formulations or we can custom make to suit your individual requirements for the same price as the preformulated product. We currently do this for major private and public path labs. Ring 02 9627 3600 for references.
All stains are precisely formulated and subject to rigorous quality assurance testing, performing optimally and predictability when used either manually or with automated stainers. We also supply certified powders and dyes.

- Mountants
- Ultramount – # 1 through 9 : Refractive index 1.515. This is acrylate/methacrylate based with Xylene as the solvent. Fast drying [touch dry in 3-4mins] and permanent [coverslips are difficult to remove]. The numbers relate to viscosity. No 1 is very thick and No 9 thin. Please note the most common viscosity is No 4, which is equivalent to Eukitt. However Ultramount No 9 has now been released, which is equivalent to Medite’s Pertex, and a mountant especially formulated for automatic cover-slipping machines.
- Aquamount – This is a water based mountant and is used for special staining techniques where the use of solvents removes the component being stained. This is not a permanent mountant. Otherwise known as Apathy’s mountant.
- DPX – see NorMount below
- Safety Mount – No 4 and 7 : Is again Perspex based but with Histolene as the solvent. If one is clearing with Histolene [our Xylene replacement solvent] then this mountant is better suited. Also available in our popular Safe-T-Mount squeeze tubes.
- Fastmount – Is also styrene based but fast drying. Touch dry in 10 mins. Excess mountant is easily removed from a coverslipped slide after a drying period, using a blade. Coverslips a fairly easy to remove after they have dried with mild heat and Xylene.
- Normount – Is styrene based and the equivalent of Depex or D.P.X., thick in consistency and slow drying. Touch dry in 20 mins minimum.
