Ascaris (Roundworm) (Product Code: SCL479/0204) is a laminated wall chart used to teach Ascaris, the large intestinal roundworm that serves as the type example of the nematodes in school and college zoology. Because Ascaris is also a common human worm infection where sanitation is poor, the 75 x 100 cm polyart chart supports both classification and health-education lessons. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

In the classification unit, Ascaris shows students what makes a roundworm different from a flatworm: a long, cylindrical, unsegmented body tapering at both ends; a fluid-filled body cavity (the pseudocoelom); and a complete gut running from a mouth surrounded by lips to a separate anus. The sexes are separate, and sexual dimorphism is easy to point out — the male is smaller, with a curved hind end, while the female is larger and straight. These comparison points are why the chart is often hung next to the liver fluke and earthworm charts.
The same chart supports a health-education discussion. Eggs passed in the faeces of an infected person contaminate soil, water or food; once swallowed they hatch in the intestine, and the larvae travel through the blood to the lungs before returning to the gut to mature. Asking students to identify where hand washing, clean water and proper toilets break this chain turns the zoology lesson into practical hygiene advice, which is why schools include it among their biology teaching aids for the middle and senior years.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, manufactures the Ascaris (Roundworm) chart as the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Buying from the factory means schools, colleges, institutions, dealers and importers receive quotations from the maker, and follow-up requests such as extra copies are answered by the same team.

How are male and female Ascaris told apart in lessons using the Ascaris (Roundworm) chart?
In lessons with the Ascaris (Roundworm) chart, students learn that the male is shorter with a curved posterior end, while the female is longer with a straight tail. Spotting this sexual dimorphism is one of the standard observations in the nematode topic.
Why is the organism on the Ascaris (Roundworm) chart a roundworm and not a flatworm?
Ascaris, the subject of the Ascaris (Roundworm) chart, has a cylindrical body, a fluid-filled pseudocoelom and a gut with both mouth and anus. Flatworms such as the liver fluke are flattened and have a gut with a single opening, which is the contrast most syllabuses test.
Can the Ascaris (Roundworm) chart be used in a hygiene session?
Yes. The Ascaris (Roundworm) chart suits hygiene and health-awareness sessions because the infection route — eggs in contaminated soil, water or food reaching the intestine — gives a clear reason for hand washing, clean drinking water and proper toilets.
What are the dimensions and material of the Ascaris (Roundworm) chart?
The Ascaris (Roundworm) chart measures 75 x 100 cm and is printed on polyart with a laminated finish. It comes as a single sheet for wall display in schools and laboratories; no frame or hanging rods are listed with it.
