The Discovery Prof DPS 5 ‘Birds’ set of microscope slides is a set of professionally prepared slides. Popular with budding ornithologists and zoologists, these transparent samples of various bird tissues and organs are excellent teaching materials for advanced biology courses at sixth-form colleges and universities. The set is also very useful for microanalysis at home using an amateur microscope.
