Description
Standard microscope slides in soda-lime glass with ground 45° edges and a frosted writing area provide a reliable base for routine light microscopy and histology workflows. Each slide is 1 mm thick, offering a stable platform for mounting specimens, applying stains, and securing cover slips during examination. The frosted edge supports clear sample labelling without interfering with the optical field, while the ground 45° finish reduces the risk of sharp corners during handling. Supplied in packs of 50 pieces and weighing 0,250 kg per unit pack, these slides suit teaching laboratories, diagnostic pathology benches, and research microscopy stations that require consistent glass quality. Manufactured by Epredia, the soda-lime glass construction is intended for standard brightfield and simple transmitted-light applications. They integrate readily into everyday slide preparation sequences, from wet mounts to permanent preparations, and pair with common cover-slip formats used in clinical and academic settings. The combination of defined thickness, frosted marking zone, and ground edges makes them a practical choice for high-throughput slide work where repeatable geometry and straightforward labelling matter.

What is this article?
Microscope slides stand., soda-lime gl., ground 45°/frosted edge, 1 mm thick is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Epredia 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.
