Slides

  • The Apex BOND is an extension of the Apex Adhesive Slides portfolio that is specifically designed and validated for IHC staining on the BOND platform. The eight dots represent the usable areas of the Apex BOND for the different dispense volumes in the BOND processing modules.
  • The Apex clipped corners are clipped at 45° angles to help reduce glass breakage and fragmentation when loaded into slide printers.
  • High‐quality sheet glass, manufactured under strict specifications and quality control procedures. Plain and frosted ground versions available.
  • Apex Patient Control Box Slides have clearly designated areas for positive control and patient tissues.
  • Snowcoat Clipped Corner Slides are clipped at 45° angles to help reduce glass breakage and fragmentation when loaded into slide printers.
  • The Apex Adhesive Slides portfolio consists of microscope slides made of white glass and coated with a proprietary adhesive coating for a positive charge, to promote tissue adhesion and to allow the slide to be more hydrophilic.
  • X-tra Thermal Slides are adhesive slides that are optimized for use with thermal printers. Hydrophobic surface with approximately 90-degree contact angle. Recommended uses include special stains, IHC, ISH, cryosectioning, and cytology.
  • Snowcoat Thermal Slides are optimized for use with thermal printers.
  • X-tra Slides have a positive charged surface which helps to bond tissue sections and cytology preparations. X‐tra slides are used for demanding H&E procedures that require tissue adhesion. Size: 1” x 3” x .04” (unless otherwise noted)
  • Snowcoat Microscope Slides contain a colored marking area on the surface of the slide to facilitate easy marking/printing and color-coded identification.
  • These slides are 3”x 1” White Snowcoat slides with two circles, each having a diameter of 1/2”. These circles match up with the Cytology Funnel, which is to be used for preparation of non-gyn cytology specimens.
  • Snowcoat Pearl slides are cost efficient slides, available in five colors for color-coded identification within the laboratory.
