Dissection Pan Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Dissection Pan (Product Code: SLE/EDE/11) is a shallow pan with a black wax surface into which specimens are pinned for dissection. The listed size is 26.5 × 19.5 × 2 cm (approx), and the pan is available in three sizes — small, medium and large — so it can be matched to anything from an earthworm to a larger preserved specimen. It is a basic item in any biology lab setup for schools in India and is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Specifications

Typical Use

The specimen is laid on the wax, pinned at the corners, and opened with scissors or a scalpel; pins pushed into the wax then hold back the body wall so organs can be traced and drawn. The dark background makes pale tissues, nerves and vessels stand out, and the raised edge of the pan keeps water or preservative from running onto the bench. Adding a little water over the specimen during the practical helps float delicate organs apart for easier viewing.

When choosing a dissection tray for school use, consider the specimen size first: a small pan is easy for younger students to handle, while the large size gives room for bigger specimens or group demonstrations. After use, remove pins, rinse the wax surface with cool or lukewarm water and wipe it dry; very hot water can soften wax, so avoid it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which size do the listed dimensions refer to?
The listing gives 26.5 × 19.5 × 2 cm (approx) and states that small, medium and large sizes are available. Please confirm the dimensions of the size you want through the contact page when requesting a quote.

Why is the wax black?
A dark surface gives strong contrast with pale tissue, so organs, nerves and vessels are easier to see and draw.

What is the pan itself made of?
The listing specifies the black wax surface but not the material of the pan body. Ask us if your specification requires a particular material.

What happens when the wax becomes worn?
Wax gradually fills with pin holes over many practicals. Replacement pads are listed in the range; tell us your pan size and we will advise on a suitable replacement.

How should the pan be cleaned?
Remove every pin, rinse with cool or lukewarm water and a mild detergent, then wipe dry. Avoid very hot water and solvents that could soften or damage the wax.

Can you supply pans for several labs or for export?
Yes. State the sizes and quantities needed and your delivery location; we serve institutions and distributors in India and international markets.
