Slide Meiosis (Set of 12)
Product Code : SCL-BLE-11875
The JLab India Meiosis Slide Set is a comprehensive histological collection engineered for the sequential study of reduction division in eukaryotes. This set features 12 professionally prepared microscope slides capturing the critical phases of Meiosis I and Meiosis II, typically sourced from high-activity tissues such as Onion (Allium) anthers or Lily (Lilium) pollen sacs. This set is an indispensable resource for University Genetics, Botany, and Cell Biology laboratories to quantify chromosomal behavior and genetic recombination.

List of Stages Included in the Set
- Interphase: DNA replication and cell preparation.
- Leptotene: Initial chromatin condensation.
- Zygotene: Synapsis of homologous chromosomes.
- Pachytene: Crossing over becomes evident.
- Diplotene: Chiasmata visualization.
- Diakinesis: Nuclear envelope breakdown.
- Metaphase I: Homologous pairs align at the equator.
- Anaphase I: Separation of homologous chromosomes to opposite poles.
- Telophase I: Formation of two haploid nuclei.
- Metaphase II: Sister chromatids align at the equator.
- Anaphase II: Centromeres split; sister chromatids move to poles.
- Telophase II: Formation of four unique haploid daughter cells.
