What Is the Elephantiasis Model Used For?
Lymphatic filariasis is caused by thread-like filarial worms, mainly Wuchereria bancrofti and Brugia malayi, which pass between people through the bites of infected mosquitoes such as Culex. The adult worms live in the lymphatic vessels for years, and the damage they cause blocks lymph drainage: fluid builds up, the limb — most often a leg — swells, and the skin thickens and folds. The class 12 biology chapter on human health and disease describes this condition as elephantiasis or filariasis, caused by Wuchereria and transmitted by female mosquitoes.
Control relies on mass drug administration in affected areas, mosquito control and protection from bites, plus limb hygiene for people already affected — points the model helps teachers bring to life.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes elephantiasis?
Long-term infection of the lymphatic vessels with filarial worms. Blocked lymph flow makes the tissue swell and the skin thicken, most often in the legs.
How is filariasis spread and prevented?
Infected mosquitoes carry the worm larvae from person to person. Prevention combines mass drug administration, mosquito control and avoiding bites with nets and repellents.
Who makes the Elephantiasis Model?
JLab — Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd — at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India.
OEM Manufacturer
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a manufacturer of laboratory equipment and parasitology and pathology teaching models in India, incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. This model is made at JLab’s own works rather than bought from a trader, so colleges, schools, dealers and importers buy direct from the manufacturer, with every unit checked by eye before dispatch. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — for example Turkmenistan in Central Asia, Bhutan in South Asia, Latvia in Northern Europe, Albania in Southern Europe and South Korea in East Asia. For tender enquiries, see the JLab lab tenders page.
