Frequently Asked Questions
Are these slides glass or plastic?
They are molded from polystyrene (PS), making them shatter-resistant and well suited for fluorescence work where glass autofluorescence can interfere with imaging.
What does TC treated mean for these slides?
TC (tissue culture) treatment modifies the polystyrene surface to be hydrophilic, promoting attachment and growth of adherent cells directly on the slide.
Are the slides supplied sterile?
Yes. These slides are sterile and ready to use out of the pack, supporting cell culture and other applications requiring an aseptic surface.
How many slides are in a pack?
Each pack contains 150 slides (SKU 333-5689-01T), priced per pack. Tiered pricing is available for larger institutional orders.
