Slide27

Human skin.  Weiger's resourcin fuchsin stain. Elastic fibers may be more evident than in ordinary H&E stained preparations.

At least one Meissner's corpuscle should be visible somewhere on this slide, located within a dermal papilla (i.e., where derrmal connective tissue projects against the base of the epidermis).

For more, see skin, also slides 26, 28, 29.

Also see epithelial tissue.
