Slides & Coverglass

  • 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)
  • X-tra Clipped Corner Slides are clipped at 45° angles to help reduce glass breakage and fragmentation when loaded into slide printers.
  • The VCE has two vertical stripes dissecting the slide into three sections allowing vaginal, cervical and endocervical sampling on the same slide. The fully frosted side is completely frosted on one side and is used for body fluid specimens.
  • Snowcoat Thermal Slides are optimized for use with thermal printers.
  • Snowcoat Pearl slides are cost efficient slides, available in five colors for color-coded identification within the laboratory.
  • Snowcoat Microscope Slides contain a colored marking area on the surface of the slide to facilitate easy marking/printing and color-coded identification.
  • Snowcoat Clipped Corner Slides are clipped at 45° angles to help reduce glass breakage and fragmentation when loaded into slide printers.
  • PERMASLIDE and PERMASLIDE Plus Thermal Slides - NEW colors! Designed and validated specifically for the new HistoCore PERMA S Slide Printer, the PERMASLIDE portfolio provides consistent, high quality, easy-to-read imprints for use with thermal print technology. New colors are available with a color-coded system to help reduce errors and standardize workflow.
  • Newly designed frosted area (patent pending) is validated to work on the Leica IP S ink-jet and Perma S thermal printers. Leica Biosystems PERMAFLEX and PERMAFLEX Plus adhesive slides are flexible print slides that show high print quality and readability by scanners, chemical resistance, positive staining and minimal background in five popular colors.
  • High‐quality sheet glass, manufactured under strict specifications and quality control procedures. Plain and frosted ground versions available.
  • Micro Cover Glass features the finest precleaned borosilicate glass, chosen for its uniform thinness and flatness.
