They sound like the ones I used to use. Be warned if you're trying to
grow cells on them then I found some cell types only adhere to the
glass slides (COS-7's prefer swimming to sticking to the plastic
slides.)  Also some batches appear to be coated with something that
proved cytotoxic to my cells, soaking the slides for a few hours in
PBS before use seemed to help.  Good luck
