Slides: Essential for Quality Microscopic Preparations
Slides are essential tools in microscopy laboratories, used as a stable support for biological, chemical, or microbiological samples. These transparent slides allow for the placement, fixation, and observation of samples under the microscope, ensuring optical clarity and stability during analysis. Thanks to their dimensional precision and smooth surface, slides ensure reliable and high-quality preparations, essential for cytological, histological, and microbiological studies.
Features of Slides
- Stable support for the sample: With their uniform thickness (1–1.20 mm), slides provide a solid and stable base for positioning samples of various natures.
- Smooth and clean surface: Washed and degreased, they ensure a preparation free from impurities, improving sample visibility and reducing optical interference during microscopic observation.
- Compatibility with cover slips: Slides are perfectly compatible with various sizes of cover slips, allowing for proper fixation and protection of the sample.
- Ease of handling: The edge finishing and various available models allow for safe and comfortable use during laboratory preparations.
Sizes and Packaging
- Standard sizes: 26 x 76 mm, thickness 1–1.20 mm.
- Packaging: Available in packs of 50 pieces, ideal for research, clinical, and educational laboratories.
Available models:
- Slides 26x76 mm – cut edge Menzel: Classic version, ideal for general preparations and daily use in the laboratory.
- Slides 26x76 mm – ground edge 45°: Beveled edge for safer and more comfortable handling, reducing the risk of cuts during use.
- Slides 26x76 mm – ground edge with double frosted band: Equipped with a frosted band for annotations or markings, particularly useful for identifying specific samples or sections.
