ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Apparatus and method for permanently and protectively mount- ing "wet" thin sections of biological specimens on microscope slides wherein each specimen is initially bathed in a low-volatile solvent containing a low concentration of first polymerizable material. Such solvent is allowed to evaporate, whereby the liquid polymeri- zable material permeates and protects the specimen. Following solvent evaporation, a second polymerizable material is layered over the specimen. Preferably, the first and second polymeriable materials comprise a mixture of low-volatility, low-viscosity, li- quid acrylic reactomers and a U.V. light-sensitive catalyst system conventional cover slip or other planar transparent member can be positioned over the polymerizable materials, and the same are polymerized by exposure to U.V. radiation. The first and second now-polymerized materials encapsulate the specimen on the microscope slide, become integral and completely hardened and are fully devoid of any solvent. The microscope slide is immediately available for examination. .
