Coplin Microscope Slide Staining Jar Overview
The Coplin Microscope Slide Staining Jar (513200-1) from Globe Scientific is a 5-10 place vessel built for routine slide staining, rinsing, and reagent immersion. Molded from white polypropylene, this jar resists common laboratory chemicals and stands up to repeated handling in histology and cytology workflows.
A screw cap seals the jar to limit evaporation and reduce reagent loss during timed staining steps. Slide grooves position specimens upright so stain and rinse solutions reach each surface evenly. Lab technicians can run several slides through a single staining sequence without crowding.
Durable construction supports daily bench use across teaching labs, clinical settings, and research groups. Each unit ships individually, making it easy to scale orders to your slide volume.

Laboratory Applications
Coplin jars handle slide staining protocols in histology, cytology, and microbiology labs. Technicians immerse mounted slides in hematoxylin, eosin, Gram stains, and other reagents, then transfer through rinse and dehydration baths. Upright slide grooves keep specimens separated for consistent exposure.
Polypropylene construction suits aqueous reagents and many staining solutions used in routine bench work. Research teams, clinical laboratories, and academic teaching facilities use these jars for repeatable slide preparation. Screw caps help control evaporation during longer immersion steps.
