in this video I'm going to show you how to prepare a wet mount slide of stained onion epidermal cells here's my microscope slide I want to have that out and ready I can obtain my specimen from one layer of onion bulb if I look at this layer one side is kind of rough and matte and the other side is smooth and shiny I need to break my onion layer towards the shiny side and then very gently peel the two pieces apart there's a thin transparent layer of cells holding these two pieces of the onion layer together that's the layer of epidermal cells that I'm looking for for my specimen now I need to obtain a piece of that running epidermis to place on my slide I can do that by turning it off with a pair of tweezers this is a very delicate thin layer of cells and they'll fold over on themselves so when you place that onto the slide once you get it off your tweezers you're going to need to spread
