Product Description
Keep prepared slides safe and easy to find even after weeks in an ultra-low freezer. This compact 25-place box is built to tolerate storage down to -80°C, so tissue sections, smears and frozen specimens on standard slides stay protected and organized between sessions without the cracking or warping that cheaper boxes can show in deep cold.
This listing is for catalog number 120316: Microscope Slide Box Polycarbonate 25-Place, Blue. The polycarbonate body has evenly spaced grooved slots that keep each slide apart so faces never touch. A numbered foam liner rated for low temperatures matches an included identification sheet, and a molded label area on the lid gives room to write a project name and date. The lid closes with a friction fit, and molded feet let several boxes stack securely in a freezer rack or during transport. LIGHT LABS stocks the Heathrow Scientific line, so racks, replacement parts and consumables are easy to reorder.
