OptiPlus Barrier Slides Positive-Charged with Fluid Barriers, Set of 4 Boxes

Description

Positive-charged microscope slides with fluid barriers. 1/2 Gross approx.
Each Slide: 25x75x1.0mm
Test Area: 25x30mm
Barrier slides are suitable for use with frozen tissue sections, formalin-fixed paraffin sections, and cytology preparations. The slide's positive charge forms a bond with the tissue or cell preparation. Specimens adhere to the slide and remain in place during the staining procedures. Although virtually permanent, please note that upon opening the package, the positive charge will very slowly dissipate over time. Using the Barrier slides, cell and tissue loss are virtually eliminated during the microwave Antigen Retrieval* method, enzyme digestion, DNA denaturation and RNA hybridization. Positive-Charged Barrier Slides contain hydrophobic barriers which creates reaction micro chamber, that allow the quantity of reagents per slide to be tailored to the size of the specimen. These slides eliminate reagent waste without the need to use a PAP pen, thus reducing setup time.
