Staining trays made of pressed glass,

Staining frame made of pressed glass is a laboratory accessory designed to accommodate ten microscope slides measuring approximately 76 × 26 mm. Fabricated from thick-walled soda-lime glass, the frame is intended for use together with the matching glass box (catalogue number 42 000 04). Supplied in packs of ten pieces, these pressed-glass staining frames from manufacturer Marienfeld provide a robust solution for routine staining workflows in histology, cytology and related disciplines. Because soda-lime glass possesses a relatively high coefficient of thermal expansion, the frames must not be exposed to rapid temperature changes; they require slow heating and slow cooling to prevent stress cracks. Observing this thermal handling guideline preserves the integrity of the thick-walled glass during repeated staining cycles. The frames belong to the categories of staining racks, development chambers, staining boxes and staining cuvettes, supporting standardised slide preparation and staining procedures. Laboratories benefit from the durable pressed-glass construction and the convenient ten-piece packaging that matches common batch sizes for slide processing.
