SecureSlip silicone supported coverglass

SecureSlip Cell Culture Coverglass, convenient, Secure coverglass that will not move during cultivation.

The coverglass is affixed to a thin microscopically transparent silicone base which secure 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.

Features:

  • 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. Handle SecureSlips with forceps by the silicone backing to avoid damage to glass or cells
  • Easily identify "cell side" of coverglass
