Includes a variety of student and professional microscopes (compound and stereo microscopes), activity books, microscope slides, well slides, cover slips, petri dishes, microscope slide cases, prepared slides, microslide viewing systems and microslide lesson sets.

  Microscopes (Compound, Stereo, Digital and Prism)
As is the case with binoculars, there are many different brands of microscopes - some offering good value, others that really should be categorized as toys. The scopes we offer are the result of trying a number of different brands and choosing quality scopes that possess key technical features and good value. We also have prism microscopes that use natural lighting as well as versatile digital microscopes. Also see our prepared microscope slide collections as well as our selection of activity books and supplies.
 
  Individual Prepared Microscope Slides
We now offer 50 of the most popular slides used in life science classes. Simply select those that pertain to your class or interests, order the appropriate size slide box, and you have your own custom set! Each individual slide is labeled, and is of the same high quality as those appearing in the sets of prepared microscope slides that we offer. NOTE: Mix or match quantity discounts are calculated automatically and will show at checkout. Mix or match discounts are as follows: 10-24 slides, $2.49 each; 25-49 slides, $2.27 each; 50 or more, $2.19 each.
 
  Sets of Prepared Microscope Slides
High quality microscope slides in sets containing the most common slides used in life science classes.
 
  Slides, Coverslips, Slide Boxes, Petri Dishes
This section features microscope slides, well slides, slide storage boxes, coverslips, petri dishes and pipettes.
 
  Microscope Activity Books and References
Students of all ages enjoy exploring microscopic worlds. This section contains an array of books and guides aimed at capitalizing on the feeling of discovery that accompanies delving into "small worlds."
 
  Microslide Viewing Systems and Lesson Sets
This popular system utilizes durable photomicrographs, well conceived curriculum materials and reproducible student activity sheets to introduce students to a wide range of subjects. Components can be individually tailored to fit specific needs. Since the prepared slides are photomicrographs, they do not require preparation of living material, yet they demonstrate exactly what you would see using actual slide preparations.
