Human Blood Smear

Product Code : SCL440/0166

Human Blood Smear (Product Code: SCL440/0166) is a prepared microscope slide carrying a thin film of human blood, used to identify red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets in biology, physiology and paramedical teaching laboratories. Because the cells are spread out, students can sort white cells by the shape of their nuclei and run a simple counting exercise. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as cell biology equipment in a white plastic box.

What Is the Human Blood Smear Slide Used For?

Most of the cells in the field are red blood cells: small, round, biconcave discs with no nucleus, often looking paler in the centre. Scattered among them are white blood cells, which students sort by their nuclei and granules – neutrophils with lobed nuclei, lymphocytes with a large round nucleus filling most of the cell, monocytes with a kidney-shaped nucleus, and the less common eosinophils and basophils. Tiny fragments between the cells are platelets, which take part in clotting.

Teachers often turn the slide into a counting exercise, asking students to classify a set number of white cells and work out the proportion of each type, a simple introduction to the differential count used in clinical laboratories. As school biology lab equipment it also supports lessons on immunity and oxygen transport. Look for the thin part of the smear, where cells lie in a single layer, and if you use immersion oil, wipe it off with lens tissue before returning the slide to its box.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cells can students identify on this smear?
The Human Blood Smear slide lets students identify red blood cells, platelets and white blood cells. Neutrophils, lymphocytes and monocytes are usually easiest to find, while eosinophils and basophils are seen less often because they are present in smaller numbers.

Which stain has been used on the smear?
The stain used on the Human Blood Smear slide is not named in its product information. Please get in touch before ordering if your practical depends on a particular stain, and we will confirm the details in the quotation.

Do we need an oil-immersion objective?
An oil-immersion objective is not essential for the Human Blood Smear slide, because red cells and the general layout show at high dry power. Oil immersion does make the nuclear lobes and granules of white cells much easier to see.

Can the slide be used for a differential count exercise?
Yes, as a teaching exercise. Students can classify a set number of white cells on the Human Blood Smear slide and work out the proportion of each type; it is an educational slide and is not meant for any diagnostic purpose.

How do I clean the slide after using immersion oil?
After using immersion oil, blot the Human Blood Smear slide gently with lens tissue, wiping in one direction, and avoid soaking it in solvent. Then return it to its white plastic box so dust and scratches do not spoil the smear.

Who supplies the Human Blood Smear slide?
The Human Blood Smear slide (SCL440/0166) is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, which trades as ScienceLab and is based in Ambala, Haryana, India, to teaching laboratories in India and international markets.

Can you quote for training institutes and colleges?
Yes. For a quotation on the Human Blood Smear slide, send the product code SCL440/0166, the quantity and the delivery address; quotations are prepared for colleges and training institutes for delivery within India or abroad.
