Prepared Microscope Slides Sets and Series 17
PREPARED MICROSCOPE SLIDE SETS
Our supply of microscope slide sets has been considerably enlarged and rearranged. This list shall help you in the
selection of your slides. We offer:
• School sets. Conceived as structural series, they give a survey of those fields of biology which are of interest for
teaching in schools. The sets are also component of our „Multimedia Program of Microscopic Biology“.
• Comprehensive sets are bigger and sum up larger fields. Basic and supplementary sets add to each other and
treat the same topic.
• Detail sets are usually smaller and treat special subjects in detail, e.g. systems of organs, representative and
typical members of important groups of animals and plants, physiological and ecological subjects.
Every prepared microscope slide is unique and individually crafted by our well-trained technicians under rigorous
scientific control. We therefore wish to point out that delivered products may differ from the pictures in this catalog
due to natural variation of the basic raw materials and applied preparation and staining methods.
NEW: Accompanying Brochures for Microscope Slide Series
In response to recurrent requests, we have started to prepare and release accompanying texts for a
large part of our microscope slide series.
These explanatory brochures will be provided free of charge – as soon as they are released – along
with every order for a complete series. They are intended to help you make more effective use of our
teaching material both in the classroom and during individual study. They are depictured with photomicrographs,
drawings or diagrams.
The texts provide a description of the morphological structures involved, making it considerably easier
to look for and find the relevant spots in the microscope slides. They also furnish information regarding
systematic and physiological relationships and general biological principles, as well as stimulating
classroom interpretation and didactic use of the observations made, without having to resort to the
exact composition of the corresponding microscope slides in all cases. This is particularly so in the
case of the microscope slide series, whose compilation may present minor differences with the version
described in the catalogue.
Owners of previously acquired Microscope Slide Series can back-order the accompanying texts.
SCHOOL SETS FOR GENERAL BIOLOGY
Our school sets A, B, C, and D are arranged to cover in detail all fields of biology. Each microscope slide is carefully selected and
checked for its usefulness and value in instruction. Those slides were preferred which are typical of the corresponding group of plants
or animals.
All of the four series are arranged in taxonomic order and composed in such a way that one adds to the other and helps to broaden
the knowledge attained by teaching the previous one.
The series are also part of our comprehensive MULTIMEDIA PROGRAM FOR GENERAL BIOLOGY. For list of contents and
detailed description of the series A, B, C, D please see page 4 – 7 in this catalogue.
