Lamela 1
Lamela 1 (Product Code: SCL307/054) is a square borosilicate glass cover slip, 20 mm x 20 mm, laid over a specimen on a microscope slide to flatten it for clear viewing in biology and microbiology laboratories. It keeps solid specimens pressed flat and shapes liquid samples into a flat layer of even thickness, so the image stays sharp across the field of view. Lamela 1 is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

What Is the Lamela 1 Cover Slip Used For?
Without a cover slip, a wet mount forms a dome of liquid that distorts the image and can touch the objective lens. Lamela 1 flattens that drop into a thin, even film, so a yeast suspension, pond-water sample or stained bacterial preparation can be brought into focus from edge to edge. It also slows evaporation, giving students longer to find and sketch what they are looking for in microbiology lab equipment practicals.
The 20 mm square sits comfortably within the width of common slides, including the Lama 1 and Lama slide listings, and two can be placed along one slide to compare two samples side by side. Keep the slips in their pack until needed, lift them with fine forceps, and discard chipped pieces into a glass-waste container.

Why use a cover slip such as Lamela 1?
A cover slip such as Lamela 1 flattens the specimen and spreads liquid into an even layer, which gives a sharper image. It also protects the objective lens from wet samples and slows drying while students observe.
