Microwave-assisted Immunostaining on Glass Slides

using the Sequenza™ Slide Rack and Coverplate™ system

The Sequenza™ Slide Rack, holding 10 glass slides and Coverplates™, is a system designed for the immunolabeling of sections on glass slides. While originally designed for bench techniques, this system is uniquely suited for microwave-assisted applications. The Slide Rack holds glass slides with a Coverplate™. This combination forms a capillary gap between the slide and the plate. Reagent volumes, especially antibody, are greatly reduced using this versatile system. A reagent hopper forms the uppermost part of the plastic Coverplate™ allowing for easy dispensing of reagent into the capillary gap. Using a PELCO® Microwave Processor with a PELCO ColdSpot®, rapid immunostaining of sections on glass slides is reliable and easy. Go to the Immunolabeling Application Kit for the PELCO BioWave® Pro.

Clean with 10% bleach solution and rinse with well water. Sequenza™ Slide Rack and Coverplate™ system is not dishwasher safe.
