Description
Microscope slides measuring 76 x 26 mm with corners ground to 45° are standard glass carriers for routine light microscopy and histology. The 45° ground corners reduce sharpness at the edges, supporting safer handling during staining, rinsing and coverslipping while retaining the familiar slide footprint used across most laboratory microscopes and staining equipment. Packaged as 50 pc(s) with a total weight of 0,250 kg, the unit size is convenient for everyday bench stock. These slides from manufacturer Marienfeld are intended for specimen mounting, smear preparation and general microscopic examination in research, teaching and diagnostic support settings. The classic 76 x 26 mm dimensions align with common slide boxes, racks and automated processors. Ground 45° corners help minimise chipping risk during transport and repeated handling without altering the usable viewing area. Suitable for brightfield work and related optical techniques, these slides provide a straightforward glass substrate for laboratories that need reliable standard-format slides with refined corner geometry for daily microscopy workflows.

What is this article?
Microscope slide 76 x 26 mm, ground corners 45°, 50 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Marienfeld 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.
