Methods

Take a clean cotton swab and gently scrape the inside of your mouth.

Smear the cotton swab on the centre of the microscope slide for 2 to 3 seconds.

Add a drop of methylene blue solution and place a coverslip on top. ...

Remove any excess solution by allowing a paper towel to touch one side of the coverslip
