Abstract: A shield coating on a microscope slide, and particularly a selective application of a paraffin layer to shield biomaterials and inorganic chemical deposits from microbial attack and oxidation, aid more particularly, an application of a paraffin layer on a microscope slide as an exposure shield over deposited biomaterial reactive targets. The paraffin shield layer blocks the biomaterial and chemical targets from exposure, which may lead to degradation due to oxidation and provides resistance to fungal growth, while using the existing stain processing steps to remove the paraffin from the shield and co-resident tissue section.

Abstract: Described herein is a process record slide for staining. The process record slide includes a detection area for mounting a sample and a control area including one or more control targets. Also described herein is a method of using the process record slide in an immunohistochemical (IHC) or an immunochemistry (ICC) staining process.

Abstract: A single layer multi-silane coating construct displays controlled covalent attachment between biological materials and microscope slide substrates. Choice of various silanation reagents and their mix ratios provides control over the overall hydrophilic/hydrophobic surface behavior, attachment site density, and reactive moiety type. Both two-dimensional (2d) and three-dimensional (3d) configurations use the same foundation basics. Improved biological adhesion and fluid flow during subsequent processing is achieved. The 3d configuration offers conformal adhesion for those tissue materials that are not monotonically flat as well as multiple point capture of protein/peptides.
