Microscope slide covers

Microscope slide covers are transparent, thin plastic or glass plates that fit over the microscope slides. They are designed to protect specimens and slides from dirt and dust and to reduce the risk of contamination between specimens. In addition, they allow for greater magnification and sharpness of the specimen and reduce the amount of light that can enter the objective plate, providing better contrast for the specimen. They make the specimen flat, for better study, and at the same time keep the specimen moist on the slides.

In our online store medi-shop.gr, you can purchase plastic or glass microscope slide covers of different dimensions, depending on your needs. When choosing coverslips it is important to take into account the type of sample, the size of the slide plate, and the type of microscope used.
