How to Store Prepared
Microscope Slides
Protect slides from direct sunlight, heat and cold. Sunlight causes stains to fade and tissues to deteriorate.
Store slides horizontally with cover slips up. The mounting media in the center remains a liquid for several years. If the slides are stored on their sides, heat and gravity will cause the entire specimen to slip off.
Cold temperatures and time may cause a cover slip to pop off. If this happens, replace the cover slip and paint around the edges with clear nail polish. Use the same procedure to replace cracked cover slips.
Never immerse slides in water or solvent. Slides should be cleaned using damp lens paper. Cotton swabs dipped in rubbing alcohol or ethyl alcohol may be gently used to remove oils on the cover slip.
