The EasyDip™ slide staining system consists of a square staining jar and a 12-position vertical slide rack. Ideal for special stains, frozen sections, and microwave oven processes, the system is easy to clean and autoclavable. The slide staining jars have a wide, stable base for greater stability while the recessed interior allows for a smaller reagent volume of 80mL. Jars are constructed of break-resistent acetal polymer, and are resistant to most staining agents including alcohol and xylene, but not phenol.

• Jars can be loosely joined to each other to keep the same order when moved around
• Wide stable base for stability while inside is recessed to reduce reagent volume
• Available in five colours to aid identification of contents or applications

The slide staining rack holds up to 12 microscope slides of varying dimensions. Slides fit into individual slots for free passage and rapid drainage of staining fluids. Due to their vertical insertion within the rack, the slides writing area will not be stained by the fluid, allowing the slides to be removed without the use of forceps.

The staining rack is also constructed of acetal polymer and is specially formulated for rapid drying in a microwave oven, or at temperatures up to 120°C (248°F). The lid completely covers the EasyDip™ slide staining jar to minimize spills or evaporation. A handle is permanently attached to the rack for easy insertion and removal.
