Description
Staining rack made of PVC is a durable laboratory accessory designed to hold microscope slides securely during staining, rinsing and transfer steps in histology and cytology workflows. Constructed entirely from PVC, the rack offers chemical resistance suited to common aqueous and solvent-based staining baths used in routine laboratory practice. Overall length is approximately 380 mm, providing a practical span for multi-slide processing while remaining easy to handle at the bench. The single-unit pack is intended for laboratories that equip staining stations, teaching benches or dedicated histology suites. From manufacturer Marienfeld, this rack complements matching PVC staining trays and chambers, enabling organised sample handling from fixation through final rinse. Unit weight is 0,328 kg. Its robust polymer construction supports repeated immersion cycles and straightforward cleaning between runs. Ideal for pathology, research and educational settings that require reliable slide organisation during multi-step staining protocols without introducing metal components into the bath.

Questions about Staining rack made of PVC, overall length approx. 380 mm, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Staining rack made of PVC, overall length approx. 380 mm, 1 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.
