Description
Staining box Hellendahl in lime-soda glass with extension is a slide chamber designed for histological staining, rinsing and intermediate holding of microscope slides. It accommodates eight slides and measures 63 × 58 × 98 mm, combining a compact base with the added working height provided by the extension. Lime-soda glass construction yields a clear, durable vessel appropriate for standard dyes and wash solutions used in microscopy and histology. Supplied as a single unit weighing 0,350 kg, the box is light enough for frequent handling yet stable on the bench during timed staining steps. This extended Hellendahl configuration from manufacturer ROTH SELECTION supports laboratories that need additional headspace or fluid volume while keeping slide capacity at eight. The geometry suits staining racks and chamber arrays in pathology, research and teaching settings where multiple slides are processed in parallel. Transparent walls permit quick visual confirmation of reagent level and slide alignment. Together with related staining labware, the box helps organise sequential baths and reduces cross-contamination risk through dedicated immersion volumes. Dimensions and capacity align with everyday slide-preparation routines without specialised fittings.
This article is part of Histology reagents & consumables, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Staining box Hellendahl, lime-soda-, with ext., 8 slides, 63x58x98 mm, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Staining box Hellendahl, lime-soda-, with ext., 8 slides, 63x58x98 mm, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Histology reagents & consumables, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
Histology reagents are the fixatives, the solvents, the paraffins and the stains that turn a tissue into a readable section. The stain and the tissue, not the bottle size alone, choose the reagent. Many of these liquids are flammable or toxic and travel under dangerous-goods rules.
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.
