Ringworm Prepared Microscope Slide

Product Code : SCL-MSAC-12215

Ringworm Prepared Microscope Slide (SKU SCL-MSAC-12215) is an educational mycology slide for observing the fungal structures associated with ringworm. Despite the common name, ringworm is caused by fungi, not a worm, and this slide lets students see that for themselves while practising specimen observation. It suits supervised biology, microbiology and microscopy training in schools, colleges and universities. Quotations for the slide come from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, for schools, colleges, microbiology labs and distributors.

Specifications

The ringworm slide's specification is set out in the table. In short, it is a ready-to-view educational prepared slide of ringworm-related fungal structures, with a specimen label, protective packing or a storage case and a handling sheet, intended for teaching on a student, biological or compound microscope and not for diagnosis.

Applications and Experiments for the Ringworm Prepared Slide

The slide connects a familiar skin condition with the fungi behind it. Students can look for fungal structures, compare them with yeast and moulds, and understand why ringworm belongs in a mycology lesson rather than a lesson on worms. It also builds careful microscope technique on a fixed, ready-made specimen.

• Class 12 biology (human health and disease): ringworm as a fungal infection of the skin, nails and scalp.
• Class 11 biology (Kingdom Fungi): fungal body structure and classification.
• B.Sc. botany and microbiology mycology practicals, using an oil-immersion objective on the Economy Microscope for finer detail.
• A fungal slide reference set kept in a Storage Box, 100 Slides.

Treat the slide as a controlled teaching specimen: hold it by the edges and do not press the cover slip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Ringworm Prepared Microscope Slide a worm specimen?
No. Ringworm is caused by fungi; the name comes from the ring-like appearance of the infection on skin. The slide shows fungal structures and belongs with mycology and microbiology slides.

Can it be used to diagnose ringworm?
No. This is an educational prepared slide for teaching fungal morphology and microscopy. It is not intended for diagnosis, clinical reporting or pathogen confirmation.

How should students handle the slide?
Students should hold it by the edges under teacher supervision, start at the lowest objective and return it flat to its case after use, away from moisture, heat and sunlight.

Who quotes the ringworm slide?
Science Lab Supplies quotes it from its base in Ambala, India, naming the fungal species and stain. Microbiology departments, schools and distributors can group it with other fungus slides on one quotation.
