Microslide Smoking & Health (Product Code: SLE/PS/95) is a set of 8 related 35 mm images, photographed through a microscope, used to show how tobacco smoke changes the airways and lungs in school biology and health education lessons. Teachers use it to set normal bronchial epithelium and lung tissue beside thickened, cilia-damaged and blackened tissue, so students see the damage for themselves. This biology teaching aid is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

The set works as a before-and-after comparison. Two views of bronchial epithelium at the same 175x magnification show how the airway lining thickens, and the next frames show cilia being lost and early cancerous invasion. The lung frames then move from normal tissue to blackened tissue at 65x and on to fibrosis and emphysema, helping students link what they see to breathlessness and poorer gas exchange.
Because every view carries arrows and callouts, pupils can work through the images in pairs using a Microslide Viewer and then answer the questions in the text folder. The last frame, Alpha Virus on E. Coli at 60,000x, is a useful prompt for discussing why some images need far higher magnification than a school microscope gives. Many teachers run it alongside a smoking model as part of a wider health education unit.
