Microslide Meiosis
Microslide Meiosis (Product Code: SLE/PS/86) is a set of 8 related 35mm images, photographed through a microscope, used to follow meiosis in the developing egg cell in secondary and college biology. The images trace the primary oocyte from tetrad formation to the first polar body, then the secondary oocyte, mature egg, pronucleus stage and a zygote ready for first cleavage, five of them at 750x. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

What Is the Microslide Meiosis Used For?
Textbook meiosis diagrams usually show a generic cell; this set follows the process in a real egg cell, where the divisions are unequal and produce polar bodies. Students see tetrads, the paired homologous chromosomes, form and line up on the spindle, and then watch the first polar body pinch off before the secondary oocyte appears.
The final images carry the story beyond meiosis into fertilisation: the mature egg, the pronucleus stage and a zygote about to make its first cleavage. That makes this Microslide a useful visual biology teaching aid for linking the reproduction and genetics units, and for revising the stages before an examination.
Supplier
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited supplies the Microslide Meiosis under its ScienceLab trading name. From its base in Ambala, Haryana, the company puts together biology orders that combine Microslides, viewers, glass slide sets and models for schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which stages does the Microslide Meiosis show?
The Microslide Meiosis shows the primary oocyte with tetrads formed, dyads separated, tetrads on the spindle and the first polar body forming, followed by the secondary oocyte, the mature egg, the pronucleus stage and a zygote ready for first cleavage.
At what magnification are the Microslide Meiosis images?
Five Microslide Meiosis images are marked 750x: first polar body forming, secondary oocyte, mature egg, pronucleus stage and zygote. No magnification is stated for the three earlier primary oocyte images; ask us if you need it confirmed.
Why does the Microslide Meiosis use egg cells?
The Microslide Meiosis follows meiosis in the developing egg because the divisions there are unequal and produce visible polar bodies, which lets students connect meiosis directly with egg formation and fertilisation.
Is the Microslide Meiosis used with a microscope?
No. The Microslide Meiosis holds 8 related 35mm images already photographed through a microscope, and students view them through a Microslide Viewer. It is often used before a slide practical on meiosis.
Does the Microslide Meiosis include teaching notes?
Yes. The Microslide Meiosis is accompanied by a detailed text folder that informs students about each stage and asks them questions. The folder has a pocket to store the Microslide.
Who supplies the Microslide Meiosis?
The Microslide Meiosis is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets can request a quotation through the contact page.
