It matches the cover-slip correction on most routine brightfield and phase-contrast lenses, giving sharp focus without spherical aberration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many cover slips come in each box?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach box contains 10 individual 1 oz. vacuum packs, for 10 oz. of cover glass total. Vacuum packing limits moisture exposure and helps separate slips cleanly at the bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre these cover slips sterile?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. These are supplied non-sterile for general microscopy, histology, and teaching use. If a sterile field is required, autoclave or sterilize them per your laboratory's validated protocol before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre 18x18 mm slips suitable for hemocytometer counting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The 18 mm x 18 mm square format covers standard counting chambers and is well suited to wet mounts and cell counts. The uniform #1 thickness supports consistent fluid-layer depth across the chamber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"Product\",\n  \"name\": \"Microscope Cover Glass, 18 mm x 18 mm, #1 Thickness, 10 Packs\/Box\",\n  \"brand\": { \"@type\": \"Brand\", \"name\": \"Globe Scientific\" },\n  \"sku\": \"1401-10\",\n  \"offers\": {\n    \"@type\": \"Offer\",\n    \"priceCurrency\": \"USD\",\n    \"price\": \"76.50\",\n    \"availability\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\/InStock\",\n    \"seller\": { \"@type\": \"Organization\", \"name\": \"labsupplies.com\" }\n  }\n}\n\u003c\/script\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n  \"mainEntity\": [\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"What does \\\"#1 thickness\\\" mean for this cover glass?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": { \"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"No. 1 thickness corresponds to roughly 0.13–0.17 mm, the most common range for standard objectives.
