Three Types of Bacteria, Colored
Product Code : SCL-BLE-11670
Three Types of Bacteria, Colored (SKU SCL-BLE-11670) is a coloured prepared microscope slide presenting three types of bacteria for comparison, so students can see that bacteria differ in form. It is mounted on a rectangular borosilicate glass slide of 25.4 mm × 76.2 mm and supplied in a plastic box. It suits microbiology and microorganism lessons in schools and colleges. Science Lab Supplies fulfils orders from Ambala, India for schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors buying biology lab equipment in India.
Specifications
The three-bacteria slide is specified in the following table. In short, it is a coloured preparation of three bacterial types on a 1 × 3 inch (25.4 × 76.2 mm) rectangular borosilicate glass slide, stored in a plastic box and intended for laboratory microscopy.

Applications and Experiments for the Three Bacteria Slide
The slide helps students recognise that bacteria are classified partly by cell shape and arrangement. Placing three types side by side makes the differences easy to compare and draw, linking microscope work to lessons on microorganisms, the kingdom Monera and bacterial staining.
- Class 8 science (NCERT): bacteria as one group of microorganisms.
- Class 11 biology: bacterial shapes within the kingdom Monera.
- B.Sc. microbiology and nursing microbiology classes: observing coloured bacterial preparations under oil immersion on a microscope with a 100X objective, such as the Economy Microscope.
- Linking prepared slides to culture work, where plates are grown in an Incubation Oven before smears are made.
Bacteria are very small, so their shape is clearest at high magnification with immersion oil; wipe the oil from the slide and objective after use.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each item is one coloured prepared slide of three bacterial types, on 25.4 mm × 76.2 mm borosilicate glass, in a plastic box. The three types on the slide are confirmed on the quotation. Microscopes and immersion oil are not included.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
A single slide for demonstration or a number for a microbiology class can be quoted. The quotation lists packing, delivery time and price for the chosen quantity, and staining jars, stains or Petri dishes can be priced on it too.
Thanks to its Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Nepal, Bangladesh, Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa and Qatar. Reach the team on the contact page, place the slide in the enquiry cart, or go to the lab tender page if you are buying by tender.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which three types of bacteria are on the slide?
The slide presents three bacterial types for comparison, and the forms included are confirmed on the quotation. Bacteria are commonly grouped by shape into types such as cocci (round), bacilli (rod-shaped) and spirilla (spiral).
What magnification is needed to see bacteria?
Bacteria are only a few micrometres long, so their shape shows most clearly with an oil-immersion 100X objective, giving about 1000X total magnification. Lower powers help locate the stained area first.
Does the slide involve live cultures?
No. It is a prepared, coloured slide, so students look at mounted material rather than growing bacteria themselves. Handle it by the edges, as with any glass slide, and return it to its plastic box after use.
Who supplies the Three Types of Bacteria slide?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, and can quote it alongside larger bacteria slide sets, fungal slides and staining equipment for a microbiology teaching laboratory.
