Euglena Model (Product Code: SLE/ECB/12) is an enlarged, translucent fibreglass model of Euglena used to teach protist structure in school zoology, botany and college biology. It shows the features seen in living and stained preparations, from the flagellum and stigma to the pyrenoid, contractile vacuole and endosome, on a base of 7 x 19-1/2 in. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, and suits any biology lab setup for schools in India studying protists.

A good way to use the model is as a bridge between a pond-water practical and the theory lesson. Students first try to spot live Euglena under the microscope, where they may see only a green, spindle-shaped cell swimming with a whip-like flagellum; the enlarged model then shows the stigma that senses light, the blepharoplast and rhizoplast at the base of the flagellum, the chloroplasts and pyrenoid involved in photosynthesis, and the contractile vacuole that removes excess water.
Because Euglena combines plant-like chloroplasts with animal-like movement, the model also opens a discussion on why some organisms do not fit neatly into one kingdom. The translucent body keeps internal features such as the nucleus and endosome visible without a cut section, and many departments keep it beside an amoeba model so both protists can be compared in one session.
This model is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab and is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the Euglena Model, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, dealers and importers order it straight from the manufacturer, not from a trader, and can come back to the same team for repeat orders or questions about the model — ask us.

Which parts of Euglena does the Euglena Model represent?
The Euglena Model represents the flagellum, stigma, blepharoplast, contractile vacuole, chloroplast, pyrenoid, rhizoplast, nucleus and endosome — the features that are visible in living and stained preparations of the organism under the microscope.
What are the dimensions of the Euglena Model?
The Euglena Model measures about 44 x 15 x 15 cm overall, stands on a base of 7 x 19-1/2 in and weighs roughly 2.4 kg, so it can sit on a demonstration bench for a whole lesson.
Why is the Euglena Model translucent?
The Euglena Model is made of translucent fibreglass so that students can see internal structures such as the nucleus and pyrenoid through the body of the cell, much as they would through a thin living cell under the microscope.
Does the Euglena Model replace microscope work?
No. The Euglena Model is meant to support microscope work: students learn what to look for before examining live or stained specimens, and they can check their observations against the enlarged structures afterwards.
Are labels or a guide included with the Euglena Model?
Our product information for the Euglena Model does not specify labelling material. If you need a key for student use, please ask through our contact page what accompanies the model before ordering.
Who manufactures the Euglena Model?
The Euglena Model is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Institutions and distributors receive the model and its quotation directly from the manufacturer.
Is the Euglena Model supplied outside India?
Yes. The Euglena Model is supplied to institutions and distributors in India and international markets. Include product code SLE/ECB/12, the quantity and the destination in your enquiry so that the quotation covers delivery.
