IV. Operation & Maintenance Specifications
4.1 Standardized Operation Procedures
1. Product Cleaning (Mandatory Pre-Use Step)
- Routine Cleaning: Gently wipe both sides of the microscope slide/coverslip with lens tissue or chamois to remove surface dust and fingerprints.
- Deep Cleaning: For oil stains or stubborn dirt, dip a lint-free cloth in a small amount of anhydrous ethanol (or ethanol-ether mixture, 1:1 ratio) and wipe in a single direction to avoid scratches from back-and-forth rubbing.
- Post-Cleaning Inspection: Observe under natural light after cleaning to confirm no residual dirt or scratches, preventing impact on observation results.
2. Sample Preparation & Coverslip Placement (Core Operation Steps)
- Sample Placement: Evenly spread liquid samples or sectioned samples on the center of the smooth surface of the microscope slide. Control sample thickness between 0.1-0.5mm (to avoid improper coverslip fitting due to excessive thickness).
- Coverslip Handling: Hold one edge of the coverslip with tweezers and gently touch the edge of the sample droplet at a 45° angle with the other edge.
- Slow Coverage: Lower the coverslip slowly at a constant speed, allowing the liquid to spread naturally under surface tension and expel air bubbles. For a small number of bubbles, lightly press the edge of the coverslip to assist bubble removal.
- Excess Liquid Treatment: If liquid overflows, gently absorb it with absorbent paper (avoid forceful wiping to prevent coverslip displacement).
4.2 Maintenance & Storage Specifications
| Maintenance Category | Maintenance Requirements | Notes | Maintenance Cycle |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily Maintenance | Clean immediately after each use to remove sample residues | Do not wipe with rough materials such as hard paper or gauze to avoid surface scratches | After each use |
| Long-Term Storage | 1. Store in a dedicated slide storage box (with card slots) after cleaning and drying; 2. Storage environment should be dry (relative humidity ≤ 60%), cool (temperature 15-25℃), and free of corrosive gases; 3. Avoid stacking to prevent deformation or surface wear from pressure | Do not store with corrosive reagents such as hydrofluoric acid or strong alkalis; clean the storage box regularly to prevent dust accumulation | When not in use for a long period |
| Wear Inspection | Regularly check for scratches, cracks, and normal transmittance | Discontinue use in high-precision experiments if deep scratches, bubbles, or cracks are found (to avoid affecting observation results) | Every 10 uses or once a month |
