Spin Clean Coverslip Cleaner

Back to Other Products Page

This is a bench top coverslip centrifuge that provides coverslips that are free of micro debris and impurities.

Spin Clean is a motorized coverslip cleaning device that removes the residuals and microscopic debris that invariably remain after the final step of the coverslip cleaning protocol*. Spin Clean is a must for the preparation of bio-clean living specimens for optical and fluorescent microscopy.

Each of the eight rotors holds one 18mm or 22mm square coverslip that spin dries it at over 6000 RPM after the final cleaning solution. Up to 400 coverslips per hour can be cleaned.
