Berlese-Apparatus

The Berlese apparatus (also known as the Berlese-Tullgren funnel) was developed for the biological investigation of soil samples. It is primarily used to sort out microorganisms (microarthropods) from mulch, leaf litter and pine needle litter for experimental purposes.

The Berlese apparatus demo set is intended for both qualitative and quantitative investigation of illustrative soil habitats, and it can be employed in

The picture shows an experimental device with a lamp holder mounted above a funnel. Below is a black container, probably used for chemical experiments or as part of a physics experiment.

The picture shows an experimental setup with a lamp placed over a container with dry leaves and branches. This setup could be used to study thermal energy or the decomposition of organic materials.
The image shows a hand holding a small, snake-like organism, possibly a worm or larva. The background is neutral, putting the focus on the organism, which is used for experimental purposes in education.
The picture shows a laboratory experimental device consisting of a funnel mounted on a stand and a container underneath. This apparatus is often used in chemical experiments for the filtration or separation of substances.
The picture shows an experimental device that consists of a holder with a light source and a transparent funnel. Underneath the funnel is a cylinder that is probably used to hold liquids or gases.
The picture shows an instruction manual for a Berlese apparatus, which is used to examine microorganisms. Next to the instructions is an identification key that illustrates various insect species and their sizes.
