Clinical laboratories often need to keep slides after reporting, for example blood films for review by a senior reader or malaria smears retained for quality-control rechecking. Storing them in a closed box protects the stained surface from dust, light and scratches, while the index card lets staff list slide numbers, dates or patient codes on the outside so a particular slide can be found without opening every box. The lock keeps the lid shut when boxes are carried between rooms or sent to a reference laboratory.
Make sure slides are completely dry and, where applicable, coverslipped before they go in, and keep the box in a cool, dry cupboard. College departments that build up permanent slides for biology teaching in India use the same boxes to keep class sets together from one year to the next. The ABS body can be wiped clean with a mild detergent; avoid strong solvents such as acetone, which can mark this plastic.
