For cost-sensitive applications PolyAn has developed a range of 2D (2-dimensional)-reactive coverslips that are manufactured from high quality glass with an ultra-flat surface and low inherent fluorescence. The glass is coated with a thin silane layer that will covalently bind most types of bio-molecules. The defect-free surface features uniform silane layers that provide a high covalent coupling efficiency together with a very low background.

For DNA combing applications PolyAn also offers functionalized coverslips. You can find more information about this specialty product here.

Technical specifications

Packaging: The coverslips are packaged in inert atmospheric boxes, with a capacity of 5 coverslips per box.

Storage: PolyAn’s coverslips are characterised by a long shelf-life when stored dry, at 4-8°C and protected from sunlight. All coverslips are packaged in boxes under Argon atmosphere to avoid contamination with particles. The Argon atmosphere also minimises degradation of the reactive surface through contact with air or humidity.
