Nephron (70x100cm)
Description
The “Nephron (70x100cm)” chart is a large, highly detailed educational poster illustrating the microscopic structure and function of the nephron, the fundamental filtering unit of the kidney. It is ideal for biology classrooms, medical training, and patient education, providing a clear and labeled overview of renal physiology.
Key Features
The chart displays a magnified, color-coded diagram of a single nephron, labeling all major components: the renal corpuscle (Bowman's capsule and glomerulus) and the renal tubule (proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule, and collecting duct).
Blood supply pathways (afferent and efferent arterioles, peritubular capillaries) and urine flow direction are clearly indicated, illustrating filtration, reabsorption, and secretion processes.
Explanatory callouts often show functional steps: filtration at the glomerulus, selective reabsorption of water and solutes in the tubules, and concentration of urine in the collecting duct.
Some charts also depict the sequence of urine formation and may include microstructural layers of the filtering membrane and adjacent kidney structures.
Educational Use
The 70x100cm large format offers excellent visibility and is perfect for detailed anatomical instruction in schools, universities, and clinics.
Suitable for introductory to advanced renal physiology, nephrology, or medical nursing courses.
Useful for explaining kidney function in health and disease to patients or students using clear visuals and straightforward labeling.
