Description
Cover glasses, round, Ø 10 mm are precision microscopy accessories consisting of thin circular glass discs with a diameter of 10 mm and a thickness of 0,13-0,17 mm. Each pack contains 100 pieces, offering a practical quantity for routine laboratory sample preparation. These cover glasses are placed over specimens on microscope slides to protect the sample, flatten it for optimal viewing and create a uniform optical path. The 10 mm diameter suits compact specimen areas and specialised slide formats, while the controlled thickness range ensures compatibility with standard high-resolution objectives and immersion techniques. Product data list both depth and width as 10 mm, with net and gross weight of 0,005 kg. Produced by manufacturer Witeg, the cover glasses support histology, cytology, microbiology and materials examination under light microscopy. Their round geometry promotes even pressure distribution and helps minimise air-bubble entrapment during mounting. Consistent dimensions and ready-to-use packaging streamline workflow in research and diagnostic settings, making these cover glasses a fundamental component of any well-equipped microscopy workstation requiring reliable round coverslips of defined size and thickness.

Questions about Cover glasses circular
What is this article?
Cover glasses circular is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg 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.
