[Histonet] coverglass

[Wanda.Smith <@t> HCAhealthcare.com]

Jennifer,
When we previously used a glass coverslipper, we used ThermoFisher's Fisherfinest Superslip coverslips cat #12-545-88.  They have some type of glass beads in-between to keep them from sticking together.  They actually look dusty, but they are not.  They are kind of expensive, due to the treatment, but we very rarely had any stick together.  I think we paid about $150 per case which has 10 of the 1 oz boxes in the case.
Hope this helps!
Wanda

I am looking for vendors for coverglass for an automated coverglasser.

I want one where the coverglasses don't stick together. We are currently
using Mercedes as our vendor.

Any feedback out there for ThermoFisher?
