The Needle, Stainless Steel (Product Code: SLE/EDE/26) is a straight dissecting needle in stainless steel with a total length of 95mm, sold as a pack of 5. Packing five together makes it easy to equip a practical group, or to keep spares on hand when a point bends or goes missing. The needles are a staple item when a dissection kit for school use in India is being stocked, and they are manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Straight needles are the everyday tool for separating tissue layers, picking out small structures, and holding material steady while forceps or a scalpel do the main work. In plant practicals they help pull apart root tips or tease out anthers; in animal work they lift fine membranes and separate muscle bundles. Stainless steel resists corrosion from the water, stains and preservatives that needles are constantly exposed to.
A good approach for a class is to give each pair of students one needle from the pack and keep the rest in reserve, so practicals are not held up by a lost or damaged point. As a biology lab equipment supplier in India, ScienceLab recommends rinsing needles after every session, drying them fully and storing them points-down in a holder or with a protective cap, which protects both the tips and the people reaching for them.
These needles are made by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, whose products carry the ScienceLab brand. The firm works from Ambala, Haryana, and supplies schools, colleges and distributors in India and in international markets. Visit the company profile to learn more.
