Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action (Product Code: SLE/PS/97) is a set of 8 related 35 mm images taken through a microscope, used to follow a nerve impulse from a single nerve cell to a contracting muscle in biology and physiology lessons. Its distinguishing frames show sarcomeres in both the relaxed and contracted state, with synapses, synaptic knobs and the nerve-muscle junction along the way. The set is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Teachers use the set to tell one continuous story. Students start with a whole nerve cell, compare plain axons with myelinated axons, and then look closely at a synapse and the synaptic knobs where the signal passes from one cell to the next. The nerve-muscle junction image shows where that signal reaches a muscle fibre.
The last frames switch to the muscle itself: a striated muscle cell, followed by sarcomeres shown relaxed and contracted, which makes the shortening of the sarcomere during contraction easy to explain. With the callouts as a guide and the text folder questions to answer, this set suits both class teaching and self-study at senior secondary and early college level, and pairs well with a synapse model on the demonstration bench.

What does Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action show?
Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action shows 8 views: a single nerve cell, a synapse, axons, myelinated axons, the nerve-muscle junction, synaptic knobs, a striated muscle cell, and sarcomeres in relaxed and contracted states.
Are magnifications stated for Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action?
No magnification values are given in our listing for Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action. If your syllabus or worksheet needs them, ask us through the contact page and we will check the details for the sets we quote.
Can Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action be used with a normal microscope?
Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action is made for a Microslide Viewer rather than a compound microscope, because the images are 35 mm photographs taken through a microscope. Add viewers to your enquiry if needed.
How is Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action stored?
Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action comes with a detailed text folder that has a pocket for the Microslides, so the images are kept inside the folder with their notes and questions between lessons.
Who supplies Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action?
Microslide Nerve & Muscle Action is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) in Ambala, Haryana, India, for schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets, with IEC and GSTIN details for export paperwork.
