Plastic Coverslips

Thermanox™ Coverslips

Thermanox™ or TMX coverslips are made of a polymer, in the polyolefin family, that is highly resistant to most chemicals. They are resistant to alcohols, aldehydes, hydrocarbons, dilute acids (<10%) and dilute alkalis (<2%). Thermanox™ has limited resistance to chlorinated hydrocarbons and it is not resistant to concentrated acids or bases. It is a flexible transparent polymer that can be easily sectioned by using a microtome and is able to withstand low and high temperatures (-70°C to + 150°C).

  • Culture treated on one side for enhanced cell attachment and growth. See technical notes linked below.
  • Packed sterile, the treated side is packaged face up toward the label. Cells grown on these coverslips can be embedded while remaining on the coverslip in a plastic resin without removal for sectioning.
  • Autofluoresce in the range 380 - 545nm. Autofluoresce at the Rhodamine and FITC range: Fluorescein isothiocynate, excitation 494nm; emission 517nm.
  • Can be autoclaved at 20 minutes steam, 20 minutes dry, at 120°C.
  • 0.2mm thick

Correlative Coverslips

Correlative Microscopy Coverslips®

Correlative Microscopy Coverslips® are polyester based reticle films designed to bring together multiple disciplines of microscopic analysis using singular tissue culture sources. In this way, laboratories and research facilities can save time and money in their research endeavors. The Correlative Microscopy Coverslips® are available in three patterns for different application requirements. All are 22 x 22mm coverslips with a 0.18mm thickness. The 10 x 10 grid of 1mm squares and the 20 x 20 grid of 0.5mm squares are now available on 18mm diameter round coverslips with 0.18mm thickness. These coverslips allow the application of multiple microscopies (light, fluorescence, scanning electron microscopy - SEM, and transmission electron microscopy - TEM) originating from a specific position on a single coverslip.

  • Good cell adhesion without poly-L-lysine
  • Good cell culture growth
  • Easily sterilized - UV or Alcohol
  • Stable through a wide temperature range
  • Resistant to standard electron microscopy processing chemicals
  • Good optical quality and transparency for light microscopy
  • Rigid structure - no floating in culture media

quartz microscope slides and coverslips cover slips

Quartz Coverslips

Quartz Microscope Slides and Cover Slips are a necessity for microscopy applications where UV transparency is needed. They can also be used for high end microscopy applications to reduce signal los due to absorption. Other application can involve UV radiation transparency. The quartz slides can also be used for high temperature applications up to 1250°C (2282°F). Above this temperature the material will start to soften. The Quartz material used to manufacturer our high quality quartz microscope slides and cover slips is the GE 124 type high purity fused quartz, a well documented quartz used over decades in microscopy applications.

Technical Iinformation about GE 124 Quartz

Transparency is provided for 0.19 to 4.2um with very low absorbance in the 0.26 to 2.6um range.

Quartz Coverslips are available in several sizes and thicknesses, although for most microscopy applications the 0.25mm thickness is adequate. Not sterile.
