Anatomic Pathology Slides Storage System
- Technology Benefits
- - Prevents slides from sticking together, getting scratched, and collecting dirt- Easy and inexpensive to manufacture and incorporate into the clinical setting- May reduce costs by eliminating wasted staff time trying to separate slides that stick together- Supports anatomic pathology slide storage quality control initiatives
- Detailed Technology Description
- The technology is a device for improved pathology slide storage. Protective slide covers, or sleeves, resist dirt and scratching, and prevent slides from sticking together in traditional storage facilities. The sleeves are easy and inexpensive to manufacture, and can be seamlessly incorporated into a laboratory storage facility. The protective sleeves can be customized for type of material and number of storage slots, as necessary. In addition, the sleeves can be easily labeled to allow quick reference and identification of a group of related slides. A further advantage includes safe slide retrieval, as the protective sleeves reduce the risk of fingers getting cut on a slideΓÇÖs glass edge.
- *Abstract
-
Traditional storage methods may compromise slide integrity by way of becoming dirty, scratched, or stuck together. These and other issues can be prevented through the use of this invention for protective slide covers, or sleeves, which are inexpensive to manufacture and easy to incorporate into the clinical setting.
