D 263™ M Cover glass
D 263™ M is a clear borosilicate glass that is produced by a draw-down method. This allows for very thin thicknesses between 0.10 and 0.21 mm. D 263™ M is used as a cover glass for microscopic analyses and complies to the requirements of ISO 8255-1. The low autofluorescence and the chemical resistance are preconditions for reliable research results.
Features
- high spectral transmission
- virtually colourless appearance
- excellent optical quality
- low flatness deviations
- good chemical resistance
- refractive index fine-tuned to microscopes
- low autofluorescence
- protective coating facilitates automated separation of individual coverglasses in coverslippers
- complies precisely with the set thickness tolerances
- persistency at changing climatic conditions
- low alkaline strength enables good cell growth
