Visikol and Melzer's Reagent questions
    #19257998 - 12/10/13 10:22 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

I am trying to expand my understanding of mycology and have dived into microscopy studies with a few questions.  When studying spore specimens I have noticed some species hard to identify and view without stains or reagents. 

I have read that Visikol and Melzer's Reagent is what I should be using when studying certain specimens under a microscope.

Does anyone have any experience working with these solutions? If so, is one better than the other? Also, how would one source this in Canada?
