2. Product Information
The InSlide Out Hybridization Oven is designed so its sealed tray maintains a humid
condition for In-Situ Hybridization applications without the need to use sealed cover slips.
Uses include in-situ RNA amplification, reverse transcription reactions and hybridizations,
and immunohistochemical reactions.
The InSlide Out can hold up to twenty standard microscope slides on the standard wire
rack. An optional slide holder can hold up to eighteen standard microscope slides. The
unit has an advanced PID temperature controller that provides stable and accurate chamber
temperatures from ambient plus 10
˚C to 75˚C. The unit utilizes a sealed tray to create a
humid environment for overnight runs or weekend runs, depending on the operating
temperature.
