Is there an easy way to open a BioAire cassette?
Yes. Do not remove the serialized label around the cassette. Simply cut the label with a fingernail, screwdriver, knife or cassette opening device and carefully open the housing the Hirst slit side down. The slide will be resting in place, collection side down, and should not fall out when opened or easily smudged when removing. Grasp the edges and lift up.
