Globe Scientific’s Diamond White Glass plain microscope slides combine optical clarity with a pre-cleaned, ready-to-use surface for microscopy and specimen preparation. Made from chemically pure, low-iron white glass, these 25 × 75 mm slides offer high transparency, very low self-fluorescence and no color distortion.
Choose from two formats: ground edges with 90° corners (1380-10) or 45° beveled edges with clipped corners (1384-10). Both options are 1 mm thick and supplied in protective plastic boxes.
Clear Glass for Confident Observation
The low iron content of Diamond White Glass supports clear specimen viewing without color distortion. Very low self-fluorescence helps minimize background fluorescence contributed by the slide itself.
The glass composition minimizes oxidation to help preserve sample integrity during long-term storage. Its hardness and molecular stability provide a stable surface for laboratory specimen preparation and examination.
