Millicell® EZ Slide

Description

• General description: Millicell EZ Slide allows the user to grow, fix, and stain cells directly on a microscope slide. There is no need to disassemble the unit or transfer cells from one device to another prior to analysis. The polypropylene wells are resistant to most fixatives used, so the cells can be grown on the slide and stained right in the well. Once stained, the microscope slide can be easily removed by pressing down the four side tabs of the unit and lifting the wells off of the slide. This easy slide removal reduces the risk of damaging the cells and no special tools are required to remove the wells from the slide. Raised corner ridges on the cover facilitate stacking of multiple units in the incubator, or they can be incubated in the tray supplied with the units.
• Preparation Note: Culture, fix, and stain the cells according to preferred protocol.To access the microscope slide, hold the Millicell EZ SLIDE down on a flat surface and break the four tabs by pushing them down with the thumb. Remove the cover. Hold the slide down and lift the wells upward to remove. Remove slide from holder.
