Hi all,
This discussion on immersion oil is quite timely, in that we just purchased
several bottles of the Zeiss oil.  We haven't seen any ppt yet, but was
warned that it will happen.  The reason we got this oil was pretty mundane.
I originally purchased some Cargille DF oil, but then couldn't find a decent
dispenser for it.  I got the Zeiss oil because the bottles are well designed
for placing small drops in small spaces.  If anyone has a source for good
dispenser bottles, please let me know and I'll be happy to switch back.
Thanks,
CArl
