I apologize if you subscribe to both lists (confocal & microscopy) and
receive this twice.  I wasn't sure where to send this one.
 
I have two histochemistry questions:
 
1)  How does one block endogenous biotin (the tissue in question is insect)?
 
2)  Are there "better" mounting media for sections that have had an alkaline
    phosphatase reaction run on them (better than say, "permount")?
 
Thanks for your help.
Doug
