Frequently asked questions

Is exceptionally clear, extra-hard glass used?

Yes, these IMCO Brand Microscope Slides by Graham-Field are constructed from superior materials optimized for demanding laboratory work.

They utilize extra-hard, water-white glass which provides exceptionally clear optical performance, ensuring maximum light transmission and minimal distortion.

Key features contributing to their quality and safety include:

  • Precision Finishing: Edges are carefully ground and polished, and corners are rounded for user safety and easy handling.
  • Durability: The glass is designed to be non-corrosive and non-fogging, maintaining the integrity of the specimen over time.
  • Standard Specifications: Each slide has a standard thickness between 1mm and 1.2mm, suitable for compatibility across laboratory setups.

Please note: For high-resolution work, such as oil immersion techniques, the use of a separate cover glass is strongly recommended.

What is the size and thickness range?

The Graham-Field Imco Brand Microscope Slides adhere to standard laboratory specifications for reliable use:

  • Standard Size: 1 inch by 3 inches (1” x 3”).
  • Thickness Range: The slides maintain a precise uniform thickness between 1.0 mm and 1.2 mm.

These slides are constructed from exceptionally clear, water-white, extra hard glass, which provides superior optical quality. Their design also includes durable features like rounded corners and ground and polished edges.

Do these slides have ground and polished edges?

Yes, these Graham-Field IMCO Brand Microscope Slides are designed with superior edge finishing for safety and reliability. They feature:

  • Ground and Polished Edges: The edges are meticulously ground and polished, which ensures precise mounting, safer handling, and contributes to the slides being non-corrosive and non-fogging.
  • Rounded Corners: All corners are smoothly rounded, further minimizing the risk of cuts or injury during specimen preparation and manipulation.
Are these slides suitable for oil immersion microscopy?

Yes, these Graham-Field IMCO Brand Microscope Slides are designed for use in demanding laboratory applications, including oil immersion and high-resolution microscopy. They provide the necessary quality and precision:

  • Optical Performance: They are constructed from exceptionally clear, water-white, and extra hard glass, minimizing distortion for optimal viewing.
  • Durability: The slides are non-corrosive and non-fogging, which helps maintain sample integrity during observation.
  • Precision: Slides feature ground and polished edges with a consistent thickness (1mm to 1.2mm).

Important Note: For the best possible results when performing oil immersion or other high-resolution work, the manufacturer strongly recommends the use of a separate cover glass.

Are both clear and frosted slides available?

Yes, the Graham-Field IMCO Brand Microscope Slides are available in the standard 1” x 3” size with two configuration options to meet different laboratory requirements:

  • Clear: These slides provide maximum optical clarity across the entire surface. They are made from exceptionally clear, water-white, extra hard glass, ideal for applications requiring an unobstructed viewing area.
  • Frosted: These slides include a frosted section (typically on one end) specifically designed for easy and reliable specimen labeling. This feature simplifies sample management and identification without compromising the high optical quality of the primary viewing surface.
Do these slides resist fogging and corrosion?

Yes, these Graham-Field IMCO Brand Microscope Slides are specifically designed to be non-corrosive and non-fogging. This durability feature ensures optimal sample integrity and maintains exceptional optical clarity for accurate microscopic examination.

Are these slides suitable for high-resolution microscopy?

Yes, these Graham-Field IMCO Brand microscope slides are highly suitable for demanding high-resolution laboratory applications, including histology, microbiology, and hematology.

Their superior performance is guaranteed by the following features:

  • Exceptional Optical Quality: They are constructed from water-white, extra-hard glass that is exceptionally clear, ensuring minimal distortion and optimal light transmission.
  • Precision Finishing: The slides feature a standard thickness (1mm to 1.2mm) and have all edges ground and polished for safety and uniform flatness.
  • Long-Term Clarity: The glass is non-corrosive and non-fogging, which helps maintain the integrity and clarity of your prepared samples over time.

Important Note: For critical applications, such as oil immersion or work involving very high-power objectives, the manufacturer recommends using a separate, appropriate cover glass to ensure the best possible optical results.

Are cover glasses included with these slides?

No, the Graham-Field IMCO brand microscope slides do not include cover glass. They are sold as a standalone laboratory consumable.

For best results and to ensure optimal clarity and protection for your microscope’s objectives, the manufacturer strongly recommends using a separate cover glass when performing specific high-magnification techniques, such as:

  • Oil immersion microscopy
  • High-resolution work
