[Histonet] RE: Coverslips

We can coverslip by hand, but soon after the slides are coverslipped on the machine, air bubbles begin to form. We we coverslip them by hand, there is visible glass that we can feel and move if we need too. They've been good for so long, I want to make sure it's not just us.

Thanks for the feedback! j

I just got a box of these as a "trial".  They all have been fine so far (used 1/2 the box so far)?  Maybe there is gunk in your coverslipper that is causing this or possibly some glass particles?  I coverslip by hand.

I forgot to say that the packaging has changed to their Histo Hippo theme, but they assure me they are the same product. j

For years we have used coverslips from Mercedes - the ones in a plain white box labeled in German. This year we have begun to have problems with them being dirty and having bits of glass on them that cause air bubbles when used on the automatic coverslipper. Is anyone else having this problem? They have worked with us to try to resolve it, and have replaced several boxes, but the replacements are doing the same thing. Thanks for your input, j
