Soda Glass Coplin Jar | 5 Slide Staining Container with Cover — Apex Labs
Product Summary
The Soda Glass Coplin Jar by Apex Labs is an essential tool for histology, cytology, and pathology laboratories.
Designed specifically for rigorous slide staining procedures, this professional-grade container features five precision internal grooves that securely isolate 5 standard microscope slides individually, or up to 10 slides when placed back-to-back. Constructed from premium, high-density Soda Lime Glass, it provides excellent optical transparency for direct observation of fluid changes. The architecture integrates a heavy, broad flat base to prevent tipping, paired with a matching drop-on glass lid that seals out ambient dust and strictly controls the evaporation of volatile solvents, acids, and staining reagents.

Performance Highlights
- Optimized 5-Slide Capacity Matrix: Integrated internal grooves hold up to 5 vertical slides individually to ensure uniform fluid contact, preventing cross-rubbing or slide scratching. Can expand up to 10 slides back-to-back for higher throughput batches.
- Heavy-Duty Anti-Tip Engineering: Molded from thick-walled soda glass with a wide, robust base layout that shifts the center of gravity downward, protecting active workbenches against accidental spills and chemical stains.
- Strict Evaporation Control Cover: Arrives paired with a precise, matching drop-on glass lid that retains volatile reagent fumes, preserves solution volume density, and shields specimens from laboratory dust.
- Crystal-Clear Process Visibility: The highly transparent soda lime glass formulation allows quick, unhindered visual monitoring of sample dye saturation, reagent coloration, and fluid levels.
- Wide-Mouth Cleaning Layout: Designed with a broad upper opening that simplifies internal washing, rinsing, and drying protocols between changing chemical stains.
Primary Sector Applications
- Clinical Pathology Staining: Widely deployed for executing diagnostic staining series, including hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) processing or Wright’s blood smear techniques.
- Histology Research & Tissue Fixation: Provides safe, stable vertical immersion configurations for handling delicate microtome tissue sections mounted on glass.
- Microbiological Smear Clearing: Ideal for running Gram stain series, acid-fast bacterial validations, and sample cleaning protocols under chemical hoods.
- Academic Training Laboratories: Durable, reusable construction that easily withstands standard laboratory cleaning agents, providing a long service life across school and university lab benches.
