Digital camera reviews of Celestron 44412 Prepared Microscope Slides (100-Piece Set)
Digital camera Review: Celestron 100 prepared slide item 44412 listing
Summary: 4 Stars
Celestron has taken the typical Chinese laboratory prepared slides, corrected many of the spelling errors in the listing that comes with the box and packed the wooden box in a nice printed cardboard box. The selection is more interesting than the three other '100 slide' collections that we have, but the quality of the slides is the same. Only about forty of the slides are duplicates of our other sets, and ten of those are different enough to merit keeping both prepared specimens. I like the wooden box, and Celestron's slide labels are better than the other three sets because they have the slide numbers located at the very top of the label (some sets do not number the slides themselves).
Six of the slides are not what is listed in the printed list of contents; not a cause for complaint since no seller had a listing of the slides when we ordered them. Your purchase may have different substitutions. Many of the slides have spelling errors typical of a non-English speaking, non scientific person typing the labels for the slides from a handwritten or dictated list. Most of those errors are corrected in the list enclosed in the box but there are still several mistakes; for example the slide labeled "Eloden Stem" is corrected to read "Leiden Stem" in the listing, but appears to be an Elodea (waterweed) stem. One of our slides has a large piece of the corner broken off; it was not in the box. I haven't viewed all the slides, only the duplicates.
The following list has been corrected to the best of my ability, standardized according to our own method, and cross referenced to make it easier to find a particular slide. I am a novice so I may have introduced new mistakes. We have 450 slides combined and sorted alphabetically, with duplicates included when they show different features, so with one list we can find any slide we have.
