Transportation and storage conditions considerably affect the quality and performance of microscope slides. Microscope slides should be stored in a dry place at constant room temperature. Slides should be stored on a pallet or shelf and not directly on a floor. Do not store slides and solvents together as the slide surface can turn hydrophobic. If the temperature is constantly warming and cooling, condensation may occur, which can cause sticking of the slides. Slides should be allowed to reach room temperature prior to use.

As white glass is subject to an aging process, it is further recommended to continuously rotate stock so the oldest slides are always used first. This will ensure that all slides being used are of the highest quality.

Standard shelf life for white glass microscope slides is approximately 2 years, if the above transportation and storage conditions are followed.
