Microscope slides as per syllabus of BBKA Microscopy exam

[Japetus]

Does anyone know if there are commercially available prepared slides of parts of bees, diseases and pollen like the ones required to be prepared from candidates of the BBKA Microscopy exam?

Are you taking the exam?

I am taking it this year and i am of the understanding that you make the slides yourself.

I have made nearly all that i plan to submit when i take the exam.

i think OP just wants to get an idea of what to aim for.

 

[Tim1606]

Ok. I re read the OP and i can see what they mean now.

Perhaps someone who gave/ will give the exams would have some spare slides to share/sell.
Yes, I am not going to take the exams, I would like very much though to get an idea about it and hopefully prepare my own slides..

NBS did pollen and bee slides, not really diseases but are regularly available on epay but they is much interest in them Simple but well done by Eric Marsden.
