Coplin Microscope Slide Staining Jar Overview
The Globe Scientific Coplin Microscope Slide Staining Jar (SKU 513200) holds 5 to 10 standard microscope slides during staining, rinsing, and fixation steps. Molded from white polypropylene, this jar resists common laboratory solvents and stains used across histology and cytology benches.
A threaded screw cap seals the jar, limiting evaporation and reagent loss while slides soak. White construction supports clear contrast against slide labels and frosted ends. Each jar accepts vertical slide placement, keeping samples separated for even reagent exposure.
Sold in cases of 12 units, this Coplin jar suits laboratories that batch-process slides and need reliable, chemically durable staining vessels. LabSupplies.com stocks SKU 513200 for routine reorder by clinical, research, and educational labs.

Laboratory Applications
Coplin jars are workhorses in histology and cytology, where slides require immersion in stains, fixatives, and rinse solutions. Technicians load multiple slides vertically, then submerge them for even reagent contact during hematoxylin and eosin protocols, Gram staining, and other routine bench procedures.
Polypropylene construction handles repeated exposure to aqueous reagents and alcohols common in slide preparation. Teaching labs, clinical pathology departments, and research groups rely on these jars for batch staining when consistent, separated slide positioning matters to results.
