Description
Shipping container for 5 microscope slides (approx. 76 x 26 mm) is a durable polypropylene vessel intended for the safe transport and short-term holding of standard microscope slides. Manufactured from impact-resistant polypropylene and fitted with a secure closure, it protects slides measuring approximately 76 x 26 mm against mechanical stress and breakage during laboratory handling and shipment. Each container accommodates up to five slides and is supplied in packs of 100 pieces, supporting efficient stock control in busy histology, pathology and research environments. Available from manufacturer Marienfeld, the break-resistant construction with reliable locking helps preserve the integrity of stained or unstained preparations between collection, processing and microscopic evaluation. The compact, lightweight format integrates easily into existing slide-management and archiving workflows, whether specimens move internally between departments or are prepared for external dispatch. These containers offer a straightforward solution for organised sample logistics without adding unnecessary bulk, and they suit routine clinical diagnostics as well as research settings that require dependable protection for valuable slide preparations throughout the laboratory chain.

Questions about Slide mailers for 5 microscope slides (approx. 76x26 mm)
What is this article?
Slide mailers for 5 microscope slides (approx. 76x26 mm) 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.
