I bought it down the street from the lab, at a drug store.  It should be
available at any stationary store, art supply, etc.  Only a couple dollars
for two tubes.  The brand I got was made by 'Superglue', but it is just
plain old rubber cement, and I've seen many different brands.  Hope this
helps... let me know if you need more info...
