Microscope Slide, SUPERFROST® PLUS - Adhesion Slide
These Superfrost Plus(+) glass slides are made by a new process which offers the following features:
- They place a permanent positive charge in the microscope slide.
- They electrostatically attract frozen tissue sections and cytology preparations, binding them to the slide.
- They form a bridge so that covalent bonds develop between formalin fixed sections and the glass.
- Tissue sections and cytological preparations adhere better to the Plus glass slides without the need for special adhesives or protein coatings.
Benefits:
- Plus glass puts an end to background staining.
- It eliminates blue or red background staining which is often encountered in hematoxylin and eosin staining of tissue sections mounted on albuminized glass.
- No brown background staining occurs when immuno-peroxidase or in situ DNA procedures are performed on our Plus glass. A higher degree of enzyme digestion can be performed on plus glass without the loss of tissue sections.
- Cytological preparations placed on Plus glass resist cell loss during enzyme digestion, DNA denaturation and RNA hybridization.
- Plus glass improves tissue adherence in microwave staining.
- Chromic acid washes are redundant for molecular hybridization because the slides are RNAse-free.
- Plus slides are Color coded to help keep track of specimens during processing as well as filing.
The slides measure: 25x75 mm, 1 mm thick.

Superfrost® Plus Gold Slides
These slides are specially designed for the application of fresh or formalin fixed frozen tissue. They are inherently tissue binding so there is no need to add sprays or adhesives to the slides.
Features:
- Securely attach frozen breast, brain, skin and other normally difficult to bond tissue sections to the slide.
- Ideal when special stains, immunocytochemical and in situ DNA hybridization techniques are applied on fresh and fixed frozen tissue
- Assist tissue adherence during immunocytochemical analysis of estrogen and progesterone receptors in fresh frozen breast tissue.
- They are compatible with both toluidine blue and hematoxylin and eosin rapid frozen section stains.

6. Colormark™ Plus Glass Slide
Specimen Slide identification is VITAL. Automated etched slide labeling instruments ensure specimen slide integrity but are difficult to read on ordinary slides. To clearly read diamond scribed slide labels against any surface, you need the only slide designed to be used with your automated slide labeling instrument. You need COLORMARK slides.These brightly printed slides greatly improve etched labeling visibility and offer all the advantages of Superfrost¨ slides. A bright contrasting color has been printed on the back of the Superfrost end so that patient or specimen information etched through the painted end on the front is clearly visible. Colormark Plus slides are adhesive coated therefore ensuring the adhesion of the section to the slide during staining procedures.

Control Slides
Use our Histology Control Slides and you will always know for sure which specimen is the Patients and which is the Control.
Features:
- Patient and Control tissue samples on the same slide.
- Positive identification of control and patient samples.
- Proof of correct staining procedures.
- Utmost adhesion of samples to slide throughout staining procedure.
