Plastic Prepared Slides (code EL-PS-8152) is a beginner set of 15 labelled prepared slides made on plastic rather than glass, used to introduce young students to the microscope with familiar plant and animal specimens such as pollen, corn starch, an ant and feathers. The slides are stored in a slotted plastic box. It is made by Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) at its works in Ambala, India.

Specifications

Specimens Named in the Listing

• Plant material (6): dandelion flower head, tilia stem, lily pollen, corn starch, pine needle and bamboo stem.
• Animal material (6): goldfish scale, insect wing, ant (w.m. — whole mount), bird feather, honeybee leg and peacock feather.

The set contains 15 slides, but the listing names only these 12. Ask JLab for the complete slide list with your quotation.

What Are Plastic Prepared Slides Used For?

This set is meant for the very first microscope lessons in primary and middle-school science, science clubs and home-learning kits. Because the specimens are already mounted and labelled, children can concentrate on learning to focus, centre and compare what they see: the tiny grains in corn starch (the form in which plants store food), lily pollen, the many small florets that make up a dandelion flower head, the fine structure of feathers, and the joints and hairs of a honeybee leg. Plastic slides are less likely than glass to break if a child drops one, which makes them a practical choice for younger classes; older students moving on to tissue sections usually go on to glass slide sets.

Use the lowest-power objective first, keep fingers off the specimen area, and put each slide back in its slot after the lesson. Plastic scratches more easily than glass, so clean the slides gently with lens paper and never with abrasive cloth.

What to Specify When Ordering

• Number of sets — minimum 10 units; one set per microscope or per group works well for younger classes.
• Full specimen list — ask for the complete list of all 15 slides if your lesson plan depends on particular specimens.
• Glass sets for older classes — add glass slide sets from the same range if the order covers several year groups.
• Microscopes — student microscopes are listed separately and can be quoted together with the slides.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many slides are in the Plastic Prepared Slides set?
Fifteen labelled plastic slides in a slotted plastic box. The listing names 12 of the specimens, so request the full list with your quotation if you need to know all of them in advance.

Why choose plastic slides instead of glass?
Plastic slides are lighter and less likely to break when handled by young children, so they suit beginners. Glass gives a harder, more scratch-resistant surface, which is why the more advanced JLab sets use glass slides.

Which age group is this set for?
It is described as a beginner set for introducing microscopy, so it fits primary and middle-school pupils, science clubs and first-time microscope users rather than senior biology practicals.

Does the set include a microscope?
No. The listing covers the slides and their storage box. JLab lists student microscopes separately, and a simple monocular school microscope is enough for these specimens.

How does it differ from the Common Interest set?
The Common Interest Prepared Slide Set uses glass slides and includes more insect parts and plant sections, such as bee and butterfly parts and a corn stem section. This set uses plastic slides and simpler whole specimens for beginners.

What details should I send for an export quotation?
Send the quantity of sets, the destination country and port or city, the delivery terms you prefer (for example FOB or CIF), packing or labelling needs and any tender reference.

Who manufactures these plastic prepared slides?
JLab — Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd — makes them at its Ambala works in Haryana, India, and quotes for them as the manufacturer.

OEM Manufacturer

JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, an Indian manufacturer of school science apparatus and biology lab equipment, incorporated in 2017 with its base on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. These slide sets come from JLab’s own works and are not sourced from a trader, so schools, colleges, distributors and importers order directly from the maker, each set is visually checked before packing, and repeat supplies come from the same source. The company is registered as an MSME manufacturing enterprise under UDYAM-HR-01-0003849 and holds Importer-Exporter Code 3317504552. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — for example Ethiopia in East Africa, Bulgaria in Eastern Europe, France in Western Europe, Greece in Southern Europe and Thailand in Southeast Asia. Tender buyers can refer to the JLab lab tenders page.
