Gentaur offers three distinct lines of microscope slides designed to meet the demands of today’s modern laboratory.

  • Diamond White Glass microscope slides are produced from superior-quality white glass and provide exceptional clarity, low self-fluorescence, and uniform thickness. The glass is formulated to minimize oxidation, ensuring sample integrity during long-term storage. This premium line is engineered for the most demanding applications and delivers significant cost savings compared to other name-brand white glass slides on the market.

  • Diamond Essentials microscope slides are manufactured from high-quality soda lime glass and are ideal for routine laboratory applications. These slides offer reliable performance and consistent quality while providing substantial cost savings.

  • Gentaur general purpose microscope slides are a cost-effective solution for less demanding applications, offering dependable performance at an economical price point.

General purpose Microscope slide The economical alternative 

Slide mailers 

Gentaur 's cardboard slide mailers securely hold slides with or without a cover-glass. They feature an inner finger groove for effortless slide removal along with a cover that opens for viewing. The flat surface area is ideal for labeling or writing any necessary information. They are light-weight and reusable to minimize cost. The 20-place cardboard slide holder contains a numerical index that corresponds to the inner slide compartments. The inside flaps are recessed so that there is no contact or contamination between the slides and the cover when closed. With a 360° hinge, the cover folds flat underneath to save space when the holder is in use
