Microscope Slides – School Sets
MICROSCOPE SLIDES
Our microscope slides are made under rigorous scientific control. They are the product of long experience combined with the
most up to date techniques. The prerequisite for excellent preparations is good material, well preserved and fixed so that the
finer structures are as life-like as possible. Microtome sections are cut from this material by highly skilled and experienced staff.
Cut to a thickness which will result in slides from which the maximum resolution of the structural components can be obtained.
Particular attention is paid to the staining technique and in each case the selected method for a particular specimen will ensure
the best possible differentiation combined with clear definition and permanency of staining. These prepared microscope slides
are supplied on the best glass with finely ground edges of the size 26x76 mm (1x3") and are mailed in rigid boxes. Most sets are
supplied with comprehensive explanatory brochures. All slides can be purchased either in complete sets and series or individually
at a minimum quantity of 25 mixed slides. We reserve the right to make minor alterations to the advertised sets and compilations.
Delivery time usually between 6 and 8 weeks, but because some micro-compounds are controlled by legal specification, delay in
delivery can be experienced.

Excellent workmanship • high-contrast presentation • long life
THE MULTIMEDIA PROGRAM ABCD MICROSCOPIC BIOLOGY
The multimedia system gives a concrete overview of all areas of biology that are of relevance for school
classes, and which can be worked on using a microscope. The main part of the system is made up of four
micropreparations – school sets A, B, C and D – which can be built onto each other. Of course, the individual
series and their components can be used individually in their own right, and added to each the other. To
complete the overview, we recommend using the other media. You can therefore select your favourites from
our programme:
1. Microscope Slides, School Sets A, B, C and D
2. The handbook with texts and diagrams
3. An atlas with reproducible copies and colour photographs of micro-compounds
4. A CD-Rom for interactive learning
