[Histonet] Staining racks

[Jack Ratliff]

Suzanne,

 

I routinely use the 2x3 glass slides for "thin" sectioning on a sledge microtome and then the 2x4 plastic slides for the "ground" sectioning. Brain Research Labs makes a 4 inch slide rack that works perfectly for the 2x4 plastic slides! It is a stainless steel rack (item #3004) that holds 25-30 slides and costs $69.50 each.

> Hello, I work in plastics using Technovit 7200. We use plastic slides measuring 2x4cm. Does anyone else use slides this large and if so, what do you use as a staining rack or slide holder? They are too big to fit in the oversized glass slide racks.
