| Summary: | In order to effectively use the zooplankton sample obtained in the polar ocean which was the subject of waste disposal, a prototype of the resin-encapsulated specimen was prepared. Making of zooplankton resin encapsulated specimen is a new trial case. In the prototype, animals of various classification groups were used, but in the case of polychaetes, crustaceans, and fish, there were problems such as contraction of the body, generation of bubbles, generation of a layer by leachate. As a result of carrying out a process for avoiding these problems, it was possible to achieve a good finish with high transparency. Resin-encapsulated specimens are beautiful, have real size and shape, can be observed in many directions, are solids, are robust and lightweight and easy to transport, observers can use safely. These points are advantages as learning materials, and effective use is expected.
