3.1 Preparing Slides and Magazines
This section demonstrates how to prepare slides and magazines. You can use slides and coverslips
that meet the following specifications:
Slides Cover slips
Length 75.0 to 76.0 mm max. 50 mm
Width 25.0 to 26.0 mm max. 24 mm (recommended: 22 mm)
Thickness 0.9 to 1.2 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!
Always wear personal protective equipment (safety goggles, gloves and
coat) when working with bio-hazardous material or slides.
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!
If the scanner is equipped with a 40× objective, the outer rim of the
sample should be at least 3mm distance from the slide edge on the left
side, since the working distance of the 40× objective is 0.25mm,
therefore, the objective edge may collide with the stage edge during
digitization.
