Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot
Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot (Product Code: SCL528/0240) is botanical stem specimen material, provided in a glass specimen jar, used to cut transverse sections that show how vascular bundles are arranged in monocot and dicot stems. School and college botany departments use it in plant anatomy practicals, where students prepare their own stem sections and compare them with prepared slides. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

What Is the Stem Section Material Used For?
The comparison students are looking for becomes clear once a good section is cut. In a dicot stem the vascular bundles form a ring, each one open, with cambium between the xylem and phloem, and there is a distinct cortex outside the ring and a pith inside it. In a monocot stem the bundles are scattered through the ground tissue, each closed (without cambium) and wrapped in a bundle sheath, with no clear division into cortex and pith.
For clean sections, cut with a single smooth stroke, keep both material and blade wet, and collect the sections in water so the thinnest can be lifted out with a fine brush. Double staining helps to separate lignified from unlignified tissue. As plant biology lab equipment, this stem material is most useful when the class also has prepared slides to compare against. Rinse each piece before cutting and replace the jar lid promptly.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Whether you need monocot stem material, dicot stem material or both, so we can confirm what each jar contains.
- The number of jars for your class or practical examination batch.
- Any prepared stem slides, stains, coverslips or mounting medium to be quoted together with the specimen.

Frequently Asked Questions
What differences will students see between monocot and dicot stems?
In sections cut from Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot, dicot stems show a ring of open vascular bundles with cambium, while monocot stems show scattered, closed bundles with bundle sheaths and no clear division into cortex and pith.
Is the plant species named?
No plant species is given in our listing for Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot. Contact us if your syllabus requires specific plants, and we will confirm what can be supplied before you place the order.
Will one jar be enough for a whole class?
The quantity of material per jar of Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot is not stated in our details. Tell us your class size or number of practical groups, and we will advise how many jars to order.
Is this the item previously listed as "Onocot/Dicot"?
Yes. Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot was previously listed with the misspelling "Onocot", which is why its web address still reads "onocotdicot". It is the same specimen, with the product code SCL528/0240.
Who supplies Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot?
Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India, which sources botanical specimen material for school and college practicals and quotes it with the related slides and stains.
What precautions apply when handling the specimen?
Handle the glass jar of Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot with care, rinse each piece in water before cutting, wear gloves and keep the lid closed when not in use. Ask us about any preserving fluid in the jar.
Can root, stem and leaf section materials be quoted together?
Yes. Section Material Stem Monocot/Dicot can be quoted together with the root and leaf section materials in one enquiry for institutions in India and international markets, so a complete plant anatomy practical is covered at once.
