100% Human Tissue
All tissues are FFPE human tissues. The intended use of control slides is to qualitatively assess the performance of the special stain and not for quantitative purposes.
100% White, Electrostatically Charged Glass
Microscope slides used are made of super white glass and electrically coated. High-quality glass to avoid auto-fluorescence. Ensures proper tissue section adhesion to the slide surface and avoids the loss of valuable tissue.
Air-Dried
All unstained slides are air-dried unless otherwise specified. Allows laboratories to dry the section with or without heat, according to their own needs. Reduces the exposure of control tissue to the heat drying procedure to preserve and potentially increase tissue reactivity.
Mid-High Tissue Placement
Save expensive reagents. Allow the placement of patient and control tissue on the same slide.
