3 Operating Slides and Trays
3.1 Preparing Slides and Trays
This section demonstrates how to prepare slides and trays. You may use slides and coverslips that
meet the following specifications:
Slides coverslips
Length 75.0 to 76.2 mm max. 50 mm
Width 25.0 to 26.0 mm max. 24 mm (recommended: 22 mm)
Thickness 0.95 to 1.05 mm No. 1 and No. 1.5 (0.13 to 0.16 mm and 0.16 to 0.19 mm)
Corners 45° beveled corners
Edges Grounded or cut
Warning!
Do not use a slide when it is broken or its edges are not properly cut or
grounded. Using such slides can lead to injury.
Warning!
Ensure that no part of the mounted coverslip protrudes from the edges
of the slide.
Use slides with completely dried embedding medium only. Otherwise,
the coverslip can be shifted that makes slide loading less reliable. Not
completely dried embedding might also influence the operation of
objectives and other device parts.
Caution!
Do NOT scratch any circular marker onto the glass surface of a slide,
use a soft tip pen instead for marking area of interest.
