Elastic cartilage, SEM
Elastic cartilage. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a section through elastic cartilage (central horizontal strip) from a pinna (external ear)

Scaly skin
Psoriasis. Artwork comparing two sections through human skin: healthy skin (left) and skin affected by psoriasis (right). Psoriasis is the presence of scaly lesions on the skin

Skin mole, light micrograph

Primate fingerprint ridges, SEM

Primate ear canal, SEM

Human skin, light micrograph
Human skin. Light micrograph of a cross-section through a sample of skin from a human finger. Across top are layers of stratified squamous epithelium forming the outer skin layers

Fungal skin infection, artwork
Fungal skin infection. Artwork of clumps of fungal hyphae (brown), representing an infection of the skin by a fungus. In humans, this is invariably a dermatophyte

Vial of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide found in the joint spaces, where it acts as a lubricant, and is also a major component of cartilage and skin

African elephant eye and skin
Elephant eye and skin. Close up of the eye of an African elephant (Loxodonta africana). The long eyelashes are to protect the eyes from dust and insects

Snake dermis fibres, SEM
Snake dermis fibres, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). The dermis is the layer of living skin below the outer epidermis and the scales of a snake

Skin tissue, SEM
Skin tissue. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a freeze-fracture through human skin tissue. The fracture plane (lower frame) has revealed the pseudo-stratified epithelium (below surface)
