Description
XyliTRANS™ – Transparent Xylene & Chemical-Resistant Labels for Microscope Slides
Transparent XyliTRANS™ labels are designed to identify microscope slides subjected to common histological preparation procedures. Their permanent chemical-resistant adhesive will withstand immersion in various histology chemicals, including xylene and xylene substitutes, as well as MEK, DMSO, toluene, alcohols, and other organic solvents found in histology laboratories*. Moreover, these labels will stay stain-free and clear following staining procedures involving hematoxylin and eosin, and can withstand high temperature treatments associated with histology slide preparation.
XyliTRANS labels are compatible with most common thermal-transfer barcode printers, with the optimal chemical resistance obtained when used with our XAR-class of solvent-resistant ink ribbons. Printed text and barcodes will resist continuous wiping and rubbing with alcohols, solvents, and sanitizing wipes, including when applied on flat cardboard and polycarbonate boxes.
Benefits:
- Resistant to most chemicals, solvents, xylene, and H&E stains
- Ideal for labeling microscope slides and certain flat surfaces
- Compatible with manual and automated slide processing systems
- Printable with most commercially available thermal-transfer printers
*Thorough testing in end-user application conditions is highly recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, XyliTRANS labels are thermal-transfer printable and require a ribbon to be printed. To achieve the proper printout, these labels require a xylene and solvent-resistant XAR-class ribbon of the same width or larger.
Yes, XyliTRANS labels do not absorb colors and remain clear when exposed to histological stains such as hematoxylin or eosin Y. For even greater histological stain resistance, try our StainTUFF™ labels.
These XyliTRANS labels have been tested and can withstand immersion in xylene for up to 2 hours. For longer lasting resistance to xylene immersion, click here.
Yes, these labels can withstand high-heat conditions, up to +120°C.
No, XyliTRANS labels have a permanent adhesive that is not made for easy removal. For removable chemical-resistant solutions, click here.
No, XyliTRANS labels are not offered in color. We do, however, offer white xylene-resistant labels, XyliSTUCK™, as well as color chemical-resistant labels.
Yes, these XyliTRANS labels are compatible with automated slide processors. For more information, consult our technical support team.
Barcoding or label design software can be used to create templates that conform to your label’s size. You can then insert design elements within the template for easy printing.
Yes, we can provide our XyliTRANS labels preprinted with serialized, variable, alphanumeric, or barcode information from a database. Learn more about our custom printing options.
Yes, though, we recommend testing them under your specific conditions first. Our HistoLAM™ thermal-transfer labels are recommended for antigen retrieval protocols.
