WARD’S Comparative Liver Histology Model Set |
Study Human and Pig Livers, Both Included in One Set |
To easily explain the specific characteristics of the human liver, compare it with the pig liver lobules included in this unique set. The sectioned human liver, enlarged approximately 1,000X, focuses on the cellular structure of a single lobule from the central vein to the portal space, showing the portal triad with the anastomosis of the arterial and portal capillaries, the hepatic artery, and lymphatic vessels. Bile canaliculi are also shown supplying a branch of the bile duct. In contrast, the pig liver shows the nearly prismatic form of the lobules, enlarged 50X, along with the portal triad path. It also illustrates the emergence of the central veins and how they join to form the sublobular veins. One lobule is dissected to show inner details. The human liver model is mounted on a base, but the pig lobules are free standing. You will receive a key identifying 16 structures. Size: human liver 24″L x 12″W x 5″H; pig lobules 3 1/2″ dia.
