Frosted slides are specialized glass slides used in microscopy to facilitate the organization and identification of specimens. These slides have a frosted or etched area at one end, which can be written on with a pencil or permanent marker, allowing for easy labeling of the sample. This frosted area prevents labels from smudging or washing off during staining and processing. Labeled slides can also come pre-printed with grids, barcodes, or other identifiers to streamline tracking and data management. Frosted or labeled slides are especially useful in pathology, histology, and research laboratories, ensuring that samples are accurately identified and easily referenced throughout the analysis process.
