Hi All;

A friend of mine would like to obtain some prepared LM slides for teaching

purposes (such as blood cells, onion skin, etc.). Any suggestions as to a

relatively inexpensive source? TIA

Basics like that are carried by Carolina Biological Supply:800-334-5551.

If this is for precollege education, consider the "do-it-yourself" approach

rather than prepared slides - see the ProjectMICRO website. I'll be happy

to suggest specific books.

Another catalog source is NASCO. Their scientific catalog has many more

slides of basic biological specimens than Edmund's catalog.

I took the following information is from NASCO's web site

(You can order a catalog via the web site.)
