QUICKSLIDE PLUS BENEFITS
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.
- No prefixing required on blood smears. Bone marrow samples require pre-fixing with a quality methanol.
- 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 about maintenance?
Daily maintenance is not required, however, GG&B recommends that the tubing be changed annually. We have retubing kits which include tubing, elbow fittings, pump windings, stainless steel cannulas, one-way check valves, and wire ties for complete front to back replacement. High usage may require that the cuvette be cleaned once a month using a Q-tip and methanol that can be done in a minute or less. Call for pricing.
Does the QuickSlide Plus require special slides?
No. The machine was designed to accept several manufacturers’ slides. A quality 25mm x 75mm slide or 3”x 1” slide works fine.
What about the stain/reagent kit?
It is a proprietary formulation, developed exclusively for GG&B Company. This guarantees a consistent and quality stain. The QuickSlide Plus uses a modified Wright Giemsa stain that requires no prefixing for blood smears.
How many tests can be conducted per stain kit?
There are 125 tests per stain kit.
