Frequently asked questions
Is the acrylic material high-quality for microscopy?
Yes, these slides are manufactured from high-quality, optically clear acrylic. This material is specifically chosen to provide unobstructed visualization, ensuring that laboratory professionals have a clear view of urinary sediment during analysis.
Does the slide help standardize my urinalysis results?
Absolutely. The slide is designed for standardization in clinical settings. By utilizing ten distinct chambers that each hold a precise volume of 6.3uL, it eliminates inconsistencies and allows for reliable, repeatable calculations of cellular elements per 1mL of urine.
Are the counting circles optimized for specific magnification?
Yes, each of the ten chambers features 18 premeasured circles that are optimized for 100x magnification. This design ensures that you achieve consistent and accurate assessments when observing samples under your microscope.
Is this slide suitable for professional clinical environments?
Yes, the McKesson Urinalysis Microscope Slide is an essential laboratory consumable engineered specifically for clinical laboratory settings. Its design prioritizes efficiency, standardization, and precision for professional diagnostics.
How many samples can I process at once?
The slide features a 10-chamber configuration. This allows for the efficient processing of multiple samples on a single slide, facilitating a rapid workflow in high-volume laboratory environments.
Is this product manufactured to international standards?
Yes, this product is manufactured in Italy. It is also fully TAA (Trade Agreement Act) compliant, meeting the necessary requirements for government and clinical procurement standards.
Does the slide design support rapid cellular calculations?
It does. By integrating 18 premeasured circles within the standardized 6.3uL chambers, the slide is specifically designed to allow laboratory professionals to perform rapid and precise calculations of cellular elements present in a 1mL sample.
Is the slide durable enough for routine use?
Yes, the slide is constructed as a factory new, precision-engineered laboratory tool. The use of high-quality acrylic ensures it is durable and robust enough for daily, rigorous use in a busy laboratory setting.
Are the chambers easy to distinguish during testing?
Yes, each of the ten chambers is clearly delineated by a raised border and includes numbering on the face of the slide. This layout ensures you can easily track and distinguish between different samples during your analysis.
What is the primary benefit of using this specific slide?
The primary benefit is precision analysis. The combination of standardized volume (6.3uL) and integrated counting circles ensures that you are gathering the most accurate data possible during microscopic observation, which is critical for reliable clinical urinalysis.
