New source for McMaster Slides

McMaster slide
There is a new source for McMaster slides.  It is FEC Sources.  The slides can be ordered online from their web site at fecsource.com.

A McMaster slide is a two or three-chambered slide that is used to count worm eggs.  Fecal egg counting is a quantitative method of determining anthelmintic (dewormer) resistance and pasture contamination.

Other sources of McMaster slides include the Chalex Corporation (www.vetslides.com) and Focal Point (www.mcmaster.co.za).

I've used one of the FEC Source slides and they are awesome. With my Chalex slide I always ended up putting my slide in the wrong way on the microscope stage, but with these they function both ways!
