Product Overview
The Hydrophytic Leaf T.S. Vallisneria prepared slide provides a high-quality representation of the internal anatomy of Vallisneria leaves, specifically adapted for aquatic environments. Mounted on precision optical glass, this transverse section slide ensures optimal clarity and durability for microscopic examination. The preparation highlights unique structural adaptations such as thin cuticle, air-filled lacunae, and specialized epidermal and mesophyll cells that support buoyancy and gas exchange. Staining techniques enhance contrast between cell walls, vascular bundles, and other internal tissues, allowing clear visualization of intricate leaf anatomy. The slide is sealed to prevent contamination and environmental damage, ensuring long-term usability and preservation of specimen integrity. Lab-grade preparation guarantees uniform thickness and consistent presentation, providing reliable light transmission for observation at various magnifications. Ready-to-use and robust, this slide delivers precise structural insights into hydrophytic adaptations of Vallisneria leaves. Its detailed cellular arrangement and specialized tissues make it an essential tool for laboratory professionals, researchers, and educators seeking durable, clear, and accurate visual representation of aquatic plant anatomy.
