Used to facilitate the preparation of fungal wet mounts for microscopic examination.

Hardy Diagnostics' MycoMount™ is a device used to facilitate the preparation of fungal wet mounts for microscopic examination. It allows easy access to tubes and bottles and eliminates the need for "tease mounts" and "scotch tape preps." A clear, narrow strip of flexible material with a pressure sensitive adhesive at the tip used to pick up fruiting structures located on the top of fungal colonies. The long flexible handle allows easy access to tubes and bottles and keeps potentially infectious spores at a distance, which can be a problem with traditional "scotch tape" preps. A second adhesive pad firmly attaches the strip to the microscope slide. A score mark is located just below the second adhesive strip so that the handle can be easily broken off and discarded. The clarity of the strip allows the fungal elements to be viewed microscopically through the strip in a wet mount.
