    IPI GmbH Covering Film – A Safe and Fast Alternative to Cover Slips

    The IPI GmbH covering film is a safe and efficient alternative to traditional cover slips used in cytology and histology laboratories.

    • Advanced Protection – This unique, flexible cellulose-based film shields specimens from dust, oxygen, moisture, and accidental contact, allowing for long-term storage.
    • Solvent Compatibility – The soluble adhesive layer is compatible not only with standard aromatic solvents (e.g., xylene, toluene) but also with specialized non-aromatic solvent blends and certain "green" solvent mixtures.
    • No Mounting Medium Required – Eliminates the need for additional mounting media while ensuring excellent transparency and high optical quality for microscopic analysis of histological samples.
    • Innovative Surface Structure – The special "VarioTexture" surface structure allows for even solvent distribution and enhances long-term adhesion, maintaining the film’s superior clarity after the covering process is complete.
