A department that builds up a prepared-slide collection needs storage that protects slides from dust, breakage and mix-ups. Keeping slides flat on horizontal trays helps mounted specimens and coverslips stay in position over the years, and giving each slide its own compartment shows at a glance which slide is out in a practical.
Arrange the trays by topic, for example plant slides on the upper trays and human histology lower down, and label each tray front so students return every slide to its place. The wood frame and aluminium trays give the collection a sturdy home, and when the collection grows a second unit can be stacked on top instead of finding new shelf space.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, supplies the Unit System Slide Cabinet from Ambala, Haryana to schools, colleges, universities, research laboratories, dealers and importers in India and international markets. It can be shipped together with the prepared slide sets it is meant to hold. See the ScienceLab profile for company information.

How many slides does the Unit System Slide Cabinet hold?
The Unit System Slide Cabinet holds five hundred 3 x 1 inch microscope slides on 25 aluminium trays. Each slide lies flat in its own compartment, so the cabinet suits a department collection rather than a single class set.
Can more Unit System Slide Cabinets be added later?
Yes, additional Unit System Slide Cabinet units can be stacked on top of the first one. A laboratory can therefore expand its slide storage in five-hundred-slide steps without taking up extra bench or floor area.
What are the dimensions of the Unit System Slide Cabinet?
The Unit System Slide Cabinet measures 8 1/2 x 12 x 10 inches, with 10 inches being the height. Check the space on your shelf or bench, and allow extra height if you plan to stack more units on top.
Why does the Unit System Slide Cabinet store slides flat?
The Unit System Slide Cabinet stores slides flat on horizontal trays because this keeps mounted specimens and coverslips in place over long periods. Slides stored on edge can let mounting media shift slowly, so flat storage suits long-term collections.
What is the Unit System Slide Cabinet made of?
The Unit System Slide Cabinet has a wood frame holding 25 aluminium trays. Its door retracts into the top of the cabinet, so it stays clear of the trays while slides are being selected or returned.
Who supplies the Unit System Slide Cabinet?
The Unit System Slide Cabinet (SLE/PS/70) is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India. It can be sent to institutions, dealers and importers in India and international markets, on its own or with prepared slide sets.
