What Are Student-Grade Microscope Slides Used For?
These are everyday slides for practical work: onion peel and cheek cell mounts, leaf epidermis peels, drops of pond water, pollen and simple stained preparations made by students. Ground edges make them more comfortable to handle in large classes, and the clear glass gives an unobstructed view of the specimen under the microscope.
Because the slides are not precleaned, wash them before use in warm water with a mild detergent, rinse well, and dry with a lint-free cloth so grease does not spoil the mount or the stain. With 72 slides in each box, it is easy to work out how many boxes a class needs for a term of practicals.
What to Specify When Ordering
- The number of boxes, remembering that each box holds 72 slides.
- Cover slips to go with the slides, if you need them quoted together.
- Whether precleaned slides are required instead, since these slides are not precleaned.
