25. Immunohistochemistry/Immunofluorescence Wet Box (Light-Avoiding), capacity for 10 slides, $80
Description
Designed specifically for slide incubation, convenient for washing and incubation, with individual compartments to prevent contamination
WG525 Immunohistochemistry/Immunofluorescence Wet Box (Transparent) – 20 slides per box.
The passage describes a wet box used for immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence with two variations: one with light-avoiding properties and another transparent one.
The wet box is designed as a rectangular box, including a box body and a slide holder layer board. It is suitable for large pathology departments and companies for slice detection. The design is reasonable, corrosion-resistant, and durable.
There are two main functions of the wet box:
- Moisturizing: It helps maintain a constant humidity during the incubation process, which is generally carried out at 37°C or 4°C overnight. Excessive temperature or prolonged incubation time can cause reagent evaporation and affect experimental results. The wet box prevents this by providing a humid environment.
- Light-avoiding: Some fluorophores used in the experiments require protection from light exposure as their fluorescence can be quenched. The light-avoiding wet box is made from an opaque material, creating a darkroom environment when the lid is closed.
Dimensions of the wet box are provided as follows:
Length, Width, Height (in centimeters): 3019.94.6 (Note: The specific capacity for accommodating slides may vary based on actual usage.)
