Description
Cover glass, Standard Line, 18 × 18 mm is a square laboratory coverslip intended for routine microscopy and slide preparation. Measuring 18 × 18 mm, these glasses are manufactured from pre-cleaned clear glass, ready for use in histology, cytology, and general life-science workflows where a clean optical surface is required. Each multipack contains 200 × 5 pieces, giving a total of 1000 coverslips for high-throughput laboratories. The glasses are packed in plastic boxes and further protected by a sealed aluminium envelope, helping to keep the surfaces free from dust and handling residues until they are opened at the bench. Supplied in the Standard Line range from manufacturer Labbox, this format suits everyday mounting of specimens under light microscopes. The clear glass supports reliable observation of stained or unstained samples without introducing unnecessary optical interference. Net weight of the unit is 0,275 kg. Ideal for teaching labs, diagnostic routines, and research groups that need a consistent square cover glass size in bulk packaging.

Questions about Cover glass, Standard Line, 18x18 mm., 5x200 pcs
What is this article?
Cover glass, Standard Line, 18x18 mm., 5x200 pcs is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Microscope slides & cover glasses, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A slide is the glass a specimen sits on. A cover glass is the thin sheet over it, of a thickness the objective was designed for. A cover glass of the wrong thickness softens the image. Charged and plain slides hold sections differently.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
