Germinating Pollen Grains
Germinating Pollen Grains (Product Code: SCL468/0147) is a microscope slide used to show pollen grains at the germination stage, when a pollen tube grows out of the grain, in plant reproduction practicals. It gives school and college students a clear view of the first step towards fertilisation in flowering plants, on a clear borosilicate glass slide kept in a white rectangular plastic box. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, within its plant biology lab equipment range.

What Is the Germinating Pollen Grains Slide Used For?
In the reproduction unit, students often try to germinate fresh pollen themselves by dusting it onto a drop of sugar solution in a cavity slide and checking it after some time. Results vary with the flower, the season and the room temperature, so a reference slide ensures every student still sees a successful germination: the rounded grain, the point where the tube has broken through the wall, and the tube itself extending across the field.
Begin on low power to find a group of grains, then move to high power to follow individual tubes. Return the slide to its plastic box after each class and keep it away from heat. For schools planning school biology lab equipment in India, it pairs well with flower dissection and angiosperm life-cycle lessons.

- Cavity Slides (Single Cavity) — to hold the drop of solution and pollen.
- Coverslips — to cover the drop while the pollen germinates.
- Basic Plant Anatomy Slide Set — a set of 20 slides that includes pollen grains and a stigma with pollen tubes.
- Binocular Microscope — for following the pollen tubes across the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Germinating Pollen Grains slide show?
The Germinating Pollen Grains slide shows pollen grains in the process of germination, with pollen tubes growing out through the grain wall. Students use it to identify the grain, the point where the tube emerges and the tube itself during angiosperm reproduction practicals.
Can the Germinating Pollen Grains slide replace the live experiment?
The Germinating Pollen Grains slide works best alongside the live experiment rather than instead of it. The slide gives every student a dependable reference view, while germinating fresh pollen in sugar solution lets the class watch the process in its own preparation.
Which plant is the pollen on this slide taken from?
Our listing for the Germinating Pollen Grains slide does not name the plant species. If your practical manual refers to a particular flower, please mention it on our contact page before ordering so that we can tell you what we are able to supply.
What are the Germinating Pollen Grains slide and box made of?
The Germinating Pollen Grains slide is clear borosilicate glass, and it is stored in a white, rectangular plastic box. Keep it flat in the box, away from heat and damp, and clean the glass only with lens tissue.
Who supplies the Germinating Pollen Grains slide?
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab in Ambala, Haryana, India, supplies the Germinating Pollen Grains slide. It is sold to schools, colleges and distributors in India and international markets together with other prepared slides and biology apparatus.
What details should an order enquiry for this slide include?
