Gelatin Coated Microscope Slides in Sedimentary Size Analysis

Lesley Anne Perrie, Peter A. Peach

The use of gelatin coated microscope slides for the support of clay sized particles prevents movement in the mounting medium leading to flocculation or clumping, which may affect the accuracy of particle size analysis with an image analysing computer. The method of making the slides and of mounting the dispersed grains is described.
