How to Use the Microscope Slide
Clean the slide before use because these slides are not supplied pre-cleaned.
Place a small specimen or liquid sample at the center of the slide.
Add stain or mounting liquid if the experiment requires it.
Lower a coverslip cover glass gently to reduce air bubbles.
Place the slide on the microscope stage and secure it with the stage clips.
Begin focusing at low magnification before moving to higher magnification.
Handle glass slides by the edges, avoid excessive pressure, and discard cracked or chipped slides safely.
Care & Maintenance
Clean slides with suitable laboratory tissue or lint-free cloth before specimen preparation.
Store unused slides in their box to protect them from dust and breakage.
Keep prepared slides dry unless the specimen requires wet-mount observation.
