Smooth Muscle Fiber Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Smooth Muscle Fiber (Product Code: SCL435/0163) is a prepared microscope slide of smooth muscle fibres used to teach the structure of involuntary, non-striated muscle in school and college biology laboratories. Biology and zoology students view it to find spindle-shaped cells with a single central nucleus, the features that set smooth muscle apart from skeletal and cardiac muscle. The slide is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, in a white plastic box.

Key Details

What Is the Smooth Muscle Fiber Slide Used For?

Each smooth muscle fibre is a single long cell that tapers at both ends and carries one elongated nucleus near its middle. There are no cross-striations, because the contractile filaments are not arranged in regular bands. Students use the slide to note the spindle shape, the central nucleus and the absence of stripes, and then connect these features with slow, sustained contractions such as the peristaltic waves that push food along the intestine.

In most school biology lab equipment collections this slide is examined as the first of three muscle types, followed by striated and cardiac muscle, and students then complete a comparison table covering shape, nuclei, striations and control. Use moderate light, because very bright illumination can wash out the pale fibre outlines, and return the slide to its box once the drawings are complete.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a smooth muscle fibre look like under the microscope?
On the Smooth Muscle Fiber slide, each fibre is a long, spindle-shaped cell that tapers at both ends, with a single elongated nucleus near the middle and no cross-stripes along its length. Moderate light keeps the pale outlines visible.

Where is smooth muscle found in the body?
Smooth muscle, the tissue on the Smooth Muscle Fiber slide, lies in the walls of the stomach and intestines, blood vessels, the urinary bladder, the uterus and the iris of the eye, where slow, sustained contractions move or regulate their contents.

Why is it called involuntary muscle?
The muscle on the Smooth Muscle Fiber slide is called involuntary because it contracts under the control of the autonomic nervous system and hormones, not by conscious effort. That is why it keeps working in the gut and blood vessels without us thinking about it.

Are the fibres teased apart or shown in a tissue section?
The product information for the Smooth Muscle Fiber slide does not say whether the fibres are teased apart or shown in a tissue section. Please contact us for this detail before ordering if your practical depends on one preparation.

Who supplies the Smooth Muscle Fiber slide?
The Smooth Muscle Fiber slide (SCL435/0163) is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company quotes schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets.

Can I buy it together with the striated and cardiac muscle slides?
Yes. The Smooth Muscle Fiber slide is a separate item from the striated and cardiac muscle slides, and all three can be requested together in one enquiry by listing each product code and the quantity needed for your class.

Is there a minimum order quantity?
Minimum order terms for the Smooth Muscle Fiber slide are not published. Tell us the quantity you need, quoting SCL435/0163 and your delivery location, and we will confirm availability and pricing in the quotation.
