Speed and volume recommendations for
different mounting media
1. Due to the different viscosity of the
mounting media the speed and volumes
must be adjusted.
2. Needs to be individually specified by each
laboratory.
3. These are not fixed settings as this depends
on the type of material (cytology or
histology).
4. Therefore use different programs.
