SECURESLIP™ Glass Coverslip by Merck: Secure Cell Imaging and Protection for Cell Culture

Accurate imaging and effective liquid isolation are essential in cell culture and analysis. SECURESLIP™ Glass Coverslips by Merck offer stable positioning and a hydrophobic silicone barrier to help minimize cell disruption and reduce cross-contamination. Discover their advantages for high-quality microscopy and secure cell-based assays.

Benefits and Features of SECURESLIP™ Glass Coverslip

• Stable positioning during culture and assays: Glass coverslips are affixed to a thin, microscopically transparent silicone base to help prevent movement and reduce the risk of cell damage.
• Hydrophobic silicone perimeter for liquid isolation: A silicone perimeter surrounding each coverslip acts as a hydrophobic barrier to isolate liquids and reduce cross-contamination.
• Direct in-culture imaging: Cells can be imaged on the coverslip during culture without interference from the silicone backing.
• Easy transition to conventional mounting: The silicone backing removes easily by peeling, enabling standard mounting for downstream microscopy workflows.
• Sterile format for cell culture: Supplied sterile for use in cell culture and assay applications.

Technical Specifications of SECURESLIP™ Glass Coverslip

• Dimensions available: 8 mm x 18 mm and 12 mm x 12 mm.
• Construction: Glass coverslips affixed to a thin, microscopically transparent silicone base.
• Barrier design: Hydrophobic silicone perimeter surrounding each coverslip for liquid isolation.

Applications and Usage of SECURESLIP™ Glass Coverslip in Cell Culture

• Live-cell imaging: Perform time-lapse or endpoint imaging of cells directly on the coverslip within culture vessels.
• Compartmentalized assays: Use the hydrophobic barrier to separate reagents or conditions around individual coverslips in the same plate.
• Fixed-cell microscopy: After culture and fixation, peel away the silicone backing and mount coverslips on slides for standard microscopy.
• Cell-based screening workflows: Integrate SECURESLIP™ Glass Coverslips into multi-condition or multi-treatment screening experiments.
