ABSTRACT:
An educational fungal spore or bacteria kit is presented which has three dimensional, full-color depictions of the various fungal spores or bacteria grouped together in a kit. The kit is a common compartmented box having a top that closes to secure the contents of the kit when it is not in use. The compartments each contain a variety of three-dimensional, full-color fungal spores or bacteria models depicting all of the constrictions, attachment scars, septas, and other individual characteristics of fungal spores or bacteria. Located in the lid of the kit is a two-dimensional depiction of the three-dimensional fungal spore or bacteria in the base of the kit. The two-dimensional depictions also have the name of the spore or bacteria depicted below, respectively, in the base of the kit for easy reference. The kit may be used when viewing a sample fungal spore or bacteria under a microscope. The unknown fungal spore or bacteria is compared to the three-dimensional, full-color depiction of the fungal spore or bacteria model in the kit thus making identification of the unknown fungal spore or bacteria quite easy. Since the models are made to scale, and since they are three-dimensional and full-color in nature, the microscopist is able to determine the size and color relationships of the spores or bacteria and to use his visual and tactile senses in the identification.
