Product Overview
The Earthworm Gizzard T.S. slide presents a high-quality transverse section of the gizzard, allowing detailed observation of the muscular and epithelial structures. The specimen is carefully prepared to preserve the layered arrangement of circular and longitudinal muscles, the thick cuticular lining, and surrounding connective tissue. Staining is applied to enhance contrast between tissues, making cell layers and structural details easier to distinguish under the microscope. Mounted under a coverslip, the slide ensures long-term stability and clarity, suitable for repeated laboratory observations. The slide is designed to provide an in-depth view of the gizzard lumen, muscular layers, and supportive connective tissue, highlighting the functional morphology of this digestive organ. Each slide undergoes rigorous quality control to maintain consistent staining, minimal distortion, and accurate representation of anatomical structures. Durable and precise, the Earthworm Gizzard T.S. slide is an essential addition to laboratory collections for invertebrate anatomy studies, enabling researchers and students to closely examine the structural organization of the gizzard and its internal components with confidence and precision.
1. What structures are clearly visible on the Earthworm Gizzard slide?
Muscular layers, epithelial lining, connective tissue, and the gizzard lumen are distinctly visible for detailed microscopic observation.
2. Can this slide be used with standard microscopes?
Yes, it is compatible with standard optical microscopes at multiple magnifications for laboratory use.
3. Are there alternative slides for studying earthworm digestive anatomy?
Yes, alternatives include Earthworm Pharynx T.S., Earthworm Oesophagus, and Earthworm Entire T.S. slides for comparative studies.
4. How should the slide be stored to maintain quality?
Keep in a dry, dust-free environment, away from direct sunlight and moisture to preserve the tissue integrity.
5. Where are the specimens sourced for this slide?
Specimens are sourced from certified laboratory suppliers and prepared under strict laboratory-grade standards for quality and consistency.
