Product details
Frosted Microscope Slides
Microscope Glass Slides Frosted are specifically designed to make it easier for the user to label the slide. These slides have a frosted end, which makes it possible to write notes or labels directly on the slide using a pen or pencil. The lightly etched frosting on the slide ensures that the sample does not get disrupted, making it easier to read the information on the slide.
Frosted slides are particularly useful when preparing multiple samples on a single slide since they make it easy to distinguish between them. Another benefit of frosted slides is that the sample is less prone to move around on the slide due to the slight texture of the frosted end.
Non-Frosted Microscope Slides
Non-frosted microscope slides have a completely smooth surface without any textured area. These types of slides are simpler in design and ship at lower cost than frosted microscope slides. However, the lack of frosting on the slide makes it more challenging to make notes or labels. If the user needs to label a non-frosted slide, they may need to use adhesive labels, which can sometimes disrupt the sample.
The smooth surface of non-frosted microscope slides is also more prone to the sample moving around during observation, making it difficult to keep the sample in the field of view.

Key Features
- Frosted and non-frosted microscope slides are both useful in their respective ways.
- While frosted microscope slides provide a lightly etched surface for labeling and sample stabilization, non-frosted slides have a smoother surface at a lower cost.
- The choice of which slide to use will depend on the intended use, whether they need to label frequently, or how comfortable the user is with adhesive labels.
- Ultimately, an understanding of the key differences between frosted and non-frosted microscope slides can help the user make informed decisions that will enable them to achieve better quality observations and analyses under the microscope.
