Immunohistochemistry
At Fox Chase Cancer Center, slide quality is critical to the accuracy and consistency of our diagnostic work, especially when running assays on the Roche IHC staining platform. The StatLab KT Premium slides have proven to be exceptionally reliable in our lab. We’ve seen excellent tissue adhesion with minimal tissue loss, even through rigorous antigen retrieval and staining protocols. These slides perform consistently across a wide range of IHC assays, producing clean, uniform staining that integrates with the Roche platform. Their durability and reproducibility have helped improve our workflow by reducing repeat runs, which is essential in a clinical environment such as ours. Overall, the KT Premium slides have become a dependable part of our IHC process at Fox Chase, supporting both efficiency and high-quality patient care.

Good in case of emergency.
Mohs, Immunos and Special Stains
I am both purchaser and user. These are quality slides and are a great quality, they pick up and hold a specimen for specials and Immunos and also worked with Mohs. Sadly, they are too expensive though for the application. On a side note, the pink ones work great for Mohs.

KT Premium slides are used for IHC staining
We've had good luck using these slides for IHC as hard tissue doesn't wash off much during staining.

Improved over the slides we were using
Histology, IHC
We seem to have less of a problem with nails falling off, even with charged slides. Nails can truly be a challenge! The regular slides are great also.

Better quality slides
Histology- microtomy
KT slides feels more charged. Tissues don't fall off. Slides stay in the oven less. Pencils don't smudge off on the frosted portion.

Highest quality slide printing enhances specimen identification
Clinical laboratories rely on clear, consistent slide labeling for accurate diagnostics, efficient workflow, and regulatory compliance. Yet slide printing issues—poor print quality, smudging, inconsistent scans, and ribbon failures—remain persistent frustrations for lab staff.
This whitepaper from StatLab evaluates how KT™ series slides perform in the PiSmart slide printer system. The results are compelling: Exceptional print quality, 100% scan success, and zero ribbon failures across thousands of slides tested.
What's inside?
This white paper equips lab professionals with data-driven insights to select slide and printer combinations that enhance traceability and minimize maintenance interruptions.
For labs seeking to eliminate reprints and misreads, this is an essential guide.
