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 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.
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.
