| Features and Benefits: | • Silicone backing peels off easily for conventional mounting on microscope slides • During culture, cells may be imaged without interference from the optical grade silicone • Eliminates coverglass overlapping during culture • Easily identify "cell side" of coverglass • Recommended use temperature is -62 °C to 218 °C |
| General description: | The SecureSlip™ coverglass is affixed to a thin microscopically transparent silicone base which secures to culture vessels by an electrostatic charge, not an adhesive, to prevent movement during cultivation. The silicone also acts as a hydrophobic barrier to isolate liquid reagents on glass. Individual coverglass with silicone backing can be adhered to a petri dish or plate. These can be easily removed one at a time from the dish during culture. Once removed, coverglass can be affixed to a microscope slide by means of the tacky silicone backing for routine processing, or placed cell side down onto a drop of reagent using the silicone backing as a cover to prevent evaporation. |
