Description
Cover-slip tweezers, length 105 mm, are specialised stainless steel laboratory tweezers for safe handling of microscope cover glasses. The tip is 6 mm wide to provide a broader contact surface that supports gentle pickup and placement of fragile cover slips during slide preparation and microscopy workflows. Compact at 105 mm and light at a net weight of 0,011 kg, the instrument allows precise control under the stereomicroscope or at the staining bench without excessive bulk in the hand. These tweezers from manufacturer Witeg are made from stainless steel for durable routine use in histology, cytology, and general light-microscopy sample preparation. Supplied as a single piece, they help reduce the risk of chipping or slipping when transferring thin glass covers compared with narrower pointed tools. Suitable for pathology, life-science, and teaching laboratories that require dedicated cover-slip tweezers with a defined 6 mm tip width and a practical short length for everyday slide work.
This article is part of Microscope slides & cover glasses, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Forcep for micro slides flat-end 6 mm
What is this article?
Forcep for micro slides flat-end 6 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg 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.
