Can I add the Image-iT Fixative Solution in with the media?

We do not recommend doing this. The Image-iT Fixative Solution is 4% formaldehdye in PBS, so mixing it in directly with media would dilute the final concentration of fixative and this may result in less than optimal fixation. If you need to add fixative directly to the medium, consider using a fixative at a higher concentration such as formaldehyde at 16% (Cat. No. 28906) or at 37% (Cat. No. 9311).
