Brain, sheep
Observe the cerebellum, corpus callosum, pituitary gland, and more. This plain preserved sheep brain comes with cranial nerve attached.
Note: Dissection specimens are initially preserved with a formaldehyde solution, the best animal tissue fixative. The formaldehyde is then displaced with water and then with a glycol solution to produce a moist, low-fume specimen which can be stored almost indefinitely. We recommend that you use specimens within one year of purchase to ensure the best tissue quality. Specimen discoloration over time is normal and does not indicate decay.
Store your sheep brain dissection specimen at normal room temperature - refrigeration is
not required. Storage in attics or garages at high temperatures will damage the specimens. Once opened, specimens can be resealed in a Zip-lock bag to prevent them from drying out for later use.

Great Addition to Anatomy StudyReviewed By: Yvonne Griffiths My four Apologia Advanced Biology students very much enjoyed the dissection of the sheep brain that correlated with the study of the human brain. This hands-on activity was well worth the effort. The specimen were excellent and delivered with Home Science Tool's usual promptness!

Awesome ServiceReviewed By: Chris Great shipping, great quality. We actually received a brain with some of the spinal cord down to the medulla intact. It was very fun to see science in a real world application!

Intro to PsychReviewed By: Larry Woods I used this to help teach the anatomy of the brain, and its functions for my college General Psychology class The Nervous system. Students do not get enough practical experience-Broke the lecture circuit, and students are excited about the class with this and other hands on work.

Excellent
The children were amazed to see such detail in the real thing. It was exactly as the textbook showed, and that enhanced their learning experience tremendously. A Must for biology lab.

Excellent quality. The sheep brain was of excellent quality and my daughter loved getting one to experiment with. She is in college and has done several sheep brains in anatomy class. The shipment was also sent in a very timely manner. Will order from here again.

Not as smelly as when I grew up
My daughter and 2 friends dissected this sheep brain and had a blast. It arrived quickly and was not as smelly as when I grew up. It was wonderful for them to get hands-on experience with a real brain instead of just looking at a book or online dissection.

Excellent Tool for Teaching
My colleagues and I purchased a few of these for a science outreach program that we were doing with high school students (15-17 years old). The brains arrived quickly, and in excellent condition. They were very useful tools for explaining the basic anatomy and function of the mammalian brain, and the students seemed to enjoy the opportunity to see, touch, and manipulate a real brain.
We highly recommend this product, especially for anybody interested in an introduction to neuroscience... or anybody who just wants to poke a brain.

Fun and Educational
We discected these brains as part of our co-op science class. The kids had a fun time with this hands on experience and it was great to actually be able to locate and see different sections of the brain.
