STREW DIATOM SLIDES: enjoy the DIATOM SAFARI
Each microscope slide contains dozens, if not hundreds, of strewn, cleaned diatoms that have not been individually selected or micromanipulated. The images below represent just a sample of the species you may encounter; the species list for each sample is copious, and purchasing multiple slides increases your chances of discovering new ones. Strew slides reveal the complex beauty of a natural sample at a glance. Unlike slides containing specifically selected, micromanipulated diatoms, these strew slides may also contain (depending on the type of natural sample) diatom fragments, radiolarians and spicules. Technical Note: All strewn diatoms are guaranteed to be fixed directly to the underside of the custom, optical-quality cover glass (rather than the microscope slide itself) for maximum resolution and contrast. This is crucial because microscope objective performance drops noticeably as the specimen’s distance from the cover glass increases. Our slides ensure the specimens are located exactly where objectives are designed to perform optimally: immediately below the cover glass.
