What are the benefits of QuickSlide Plus staining over hand-dipping?
- The QuickSlide Plus is not “technique dependent”. You get consistency no matter who stains the slide
- There is no cross-contamination as with the dip or spray method. The QuickSlide Plus uses fresh reagent for each and every slide The dip method requires frequent replenishing of reagent, and this is messy and time consuming Spray type units are messy and require constant cleaning to work correctly
- The QuickSlide Plus has independently adjustable stain and buffer times, which allows the user to adjust the stain intensity With the dip method, what you see is what you get
- The QuickSlide Plus allows the user to do other tasks while the slide is staining
- The QuickSlide Plus staining takes less time and there is no waste of fluids. Remember no prefixing required on blood smears Please do remember to prefix bone marrow slides
- Cash flow is enhanced because of the increased volume of testing due to speed, quality, reliability (anyone can use the QuickSlide Plus, not just technicians), and multi-tasking capabilities of user
- Clean-up, Clean-up, Clean-up The QuickSlide Plus cleans itself after every test. No more stain spills.
- Do not have to be near sink Place QuickSlide Plus next to microscope and waste into plastic container
What others are saying about QuickSlide Plus...
“I have been in the lab nearly twelve years and this is an awesome product and one
of the best companies I have had the pleasure of dealing with. The stainer is small, tough,
durable, and hassle free; stains are quick, clean, consistent and easy to replace. Maintenance
is reduced to a few seconds a couple of times a year...it is really that easy! The company
listens and provides real customer service. I have used the QuickSlide for about a year and
have had zero problems. Also, for labs with federal affiliation, ask about their GSA pricing.”

“QuickSlide has proven to be a durable, virtually maintenance free, instrument.
Many of our patients present with chronic as well as acute phase leukemia, therefore staining
consistency is very important in identifying cellular morphology. QuickSlide has proven to
be very economical and reliable. I highly recommend owning QuickSlide.”

“I recommend the Quick Slide Stainer. I have been a Medical Technologist since 1975.
This has given me the opportunity to see many different hematology stain methods, and Quick
Slide rates with the best of these. There is no waste or mess. Each slide is consistently stained
in about 45 seconds, giving you quick turn-around for the differentials. GG&B Company has
also given me good after-the-sale support.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 580/223-6666 Ext. 254.”

“QuickSlide is an easy to use, clean, time-saving instrument. Stain quality is
consistently good, with no precipitate on the smears. In our STAT lab, we are able to use our
time more productively since this method is virtually ‘hands free’. We even purchased a
second instrument for the main laboratory to help us improve the WBC differential turn-
around times on other critical specimens. The QuickSlide system has helped us to work more
efficiently without compromising quality.”
