Product Overview
The Earthworm Oesophagus slide is meticulously prepared to reveal the fine structural details of the oesophageal segment in earthworms. This laboratory-grade transverse section allows clear observation of the muscular layers, epithelial lining, and surrounding connective tissues that constitute the oesophagus. Mounted with precision under a coverslip, the slide maintains the integrity of the tissue, minimizing distortion and preserving cellular detail. The specimen is carefully fixed and stained to enhance contrast, highlighting the arrangement of circular and longitudinal muscle fibers, the lumen, and any associated glands. The preparation ensures that internal features such as coelomic lining and vascular distribution are visible, providing a comprehensive view of this critical digestive segment. Durable and stable, the slide is suitable for repeated microscopic examinations, allowing students and researchers to closely analyze tissue organization, structural relationships, and anatomical details. The slide serves as a reliable resource for detailed morphological studies, offering consistent quality and visual clarity across observations, making it an essential component of laboratory collections for invertebrate anatomy study.
1. What structures are visible in this Earthworm Oesophagus slide?
