Frequently Asked Questions
1: When is a Cover Slipper used in the slide preparation process?
It is used after staining and drying to apply coverslips to microscope slides. This protects the sample and prepares it for long-term storage or microscopy. Proper cover slipping ensures optimal imaging.
2: Can differently mounting media be used with the system?
Yes, most cover slippers are compatible with both xylene-based and aqueous mounting media. Settings can be adjusted based on viscosity and drying time. Check manufacturer guidelines for media compatibility.
3: Can it handle various slide sizes or formats?
Yes, standard cover slippers support common slide sizes (usually 25×75 mm). Some models allow adjustable trays or custom holders. Confirm format compatibility before use.
4: When should the coverslip reservoir be refilled or cleaned?
Refill when the system notifies low supply or as part of daily checks. Clean the reservoir and applicator paths regularly to avoid clogs. Routine maintenance improves accuracy and lifespan.
5: Can the unit be integrated with other staining systems?
Yes, advanced models can be connected to auto stainers for seamless workflows. This enhances throughput in high-volume labs. Integration depends on system compatibility and lab setup.
