Cell Division Slide Set of 9
Cell Division Slide Set of 9 (Product Code: SLE/PS/80) is a set of nine prepared glass microscope slides used to show how chromosomes divide in plant and animal cells in school and college biology practicals. Teachers pick it because one box covers mitosis in Allium root tips, meiosis in Lilium and locust tissue, and an acetic-orcein squash of giant salivary-gland chromosomes. These prepared microscope slides are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Slides in the set:
- Allium root apex LS, mitosis
- Allium root tip squash preparation
- Locusta testis VS
- Rana ova, various stages
- Lilium ovary, meiosis
- Lilium anther TS, three stages of development
- Insect salivary gland squash, acetic orcein, for giant chromosomes
- Mammal testis TS showing spermatogenesis
- Locusta testis squash showing meiosis
What Is the Cell Division Slide Set Used For?
A typical mitosis practical starts with the Allium root apex LS, where students scan the meristem just behind the root cap and count cells in prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. The root tip squash then shows the same stages with the cells spread flat, which makes chromosome counting easier. For meiosis, the Lilium ovary and the three-stage Lilium anther section are compared with the locust testis squash, and the mammal testis TS links meiosis to sperm formation.
The Rana ova slide shows eggs at various stages, and the acetic-orcein salivary gland squash introduces giant chromosomes with visible banding, a useful bridge into genetics. As a microscope slide set for school and college labs, it gives the clearest results when students start on low power to locate the tissue and then move to higher power for chromosome detail.
Supplier
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited trades under the name ScienceLab and supplies this cell division set together with the microscopes, slide boxes and other prepared slide collections that a biology department orders for its practical course. The company works from Ambala, Haryana, and serves schools, colleges, training institutes and dealers in India and international markets. Background on the company is on the ScienceLab company profile page.

These items are often ordered with the Cell Division Slide Set of 9 for the same cell-division lessons:
- Mitosis & Meiosis Set, Microscope Slides — a second slide set on the two division types for larger practical groups.
- Compound Microscope — needed to view the root-tip and squash preparations at higher power.
- Slide Box — keeps the nine slides flat, labelled and protected between classes.
- Microslide Meiosis — photographic images of meiosis stages for pre-lab briefing or revision.
- Human Histology Slide Set of 25 — the next step once students move from cell division to tissues.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which slides are included in the Cell Division Slide Set of 9?
The Cell Division Slide Set of 9 contains Allium root apex LS, Allium root tip squash, Locusta testis VS, Locusta testis squash, Rana ova at various stages, Lilium ovary, Lilium anther TS in three stages, an insect salivary gland squash and a mammal testis TS.
Does the Cell Division Slide Set of 9 cover both mitosis and meiosis?
Yes. The Cell Division Slide Set of 9 shows mitosis in the two Allium root preparations and meiosis in the Lilium ovary, the Lilium anther stages and the locust testis squash, while the mammal testis TS shows spermatogenesis.
What microscope is needed for the Cell Division Slide Set of 9?
Any compound microscope with low- and high-power objectives can be used with the Cell Division Slide Set of 9. Locate the dividing region on low power first, then switch to high power to study chromosome shape and arrangement in the squash preparations.
How should the Cell Division Slide Set of 9 be stored?
Store the Cell Division Slide Set of 9 flat in a slide box, away from heat, damp and direct sunlight. Hold slides by the edges, and wipe off immersion oil or fingerprints with lens tissue after each class so the preparations stay clear.
Who supplies the Cell Division Slide Set of 9?
The Cell Division Slide Set of 9 is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies prepared slides to schools, colleges, institutions and dealers in India and international markets.
