Description
Storage boxes for 12 microscope slides offer compact, organised protection for prepared specimens in histology, pathology, cytology and teaching laboratories. Each unit is built with a wooden frame, while the lid and base are cardboard covered with black paper to shield slides from light, dust and casual handling. Metal hinges and firmly closing metal clasps keep the box securely shut during bench use, archiving or transport between workstations. Inside, numbered plastic ridges hold individual slides in fixed positions so labels remain readable and specimens do not shift or touch. An index card integrated in the lid supports quick sample identification and inventory control. Overall dimensions are 100 x 85 x 35 mm, making the format easy to stack or place in drawers and cabinets. These traditional slide boxes from manufacturer Marienfeld are packed in units of 10 pieces, providing a practical supply for routine microscopy workflows that require reliable short- or long-term storage of standard microscope slides without unnecessary bulk.

Questions about Storing boxes for 12 microscope slides,
What is this article?
Storing boxes for 12 microscope slides, 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.
