ABSTRACT:
A slide dispensing device is described which has a cone shaped upper portion which is nestable to a conventional cytology pipette, and a lower portion which is fan shaped ending in a long narrow dispensing slot to evenly distribute a specimen material onto a slide. A method is described in which a prepared specimen is aspirated into a pipette; then the pipette is nested to a slide dispensing device which has an upper portion which is nestable to the pipette and a fan shaped lower portion forming a long narrow dispensing slot; then the assembly is placed so that the long narrow dispensing portion is on a slide; and the assembly is moved along the slide while the pipette is squeezed to expel the specimen in an even band on the slide.
