Thick skin (>5 mm) covers the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. The outer keratin layer is substantially thicker than in other parts of the body. - stratified squamous keratinized epithelium divided into five strata (or layers). - single layer of germinal cells resting on the basement membrane which is attached to the dermis.
This virtual slide box contains more than 300 microscope slides for the learning histology. Tissues are classified into four basic types: epithelium, connective tissue (includes cartilage, bone and blood), muscle, and nervous tissue. Organs are assembled from the four basic types of tissues and have cells with specialized functions.

This gallery enables quick browsing of microscope slides in each chapter. Although the slides do not show descriptions, you can still find individual features using the dropdown list in the upper right corner of the image.
The 400X image shows the epidermis and the outer part of the dermis. The dermis has two layers, a thinner outer layer called the papillary layer and a thicker deep layer called the reticular layer. The papillary layer has fine collagen fibers.

The stratum lucidum is not clearly identifiable in this slide. Stratum corneum: The superficial keratinized layer is the stratum corneum, which protects the skin against friction, infection, and water loss. It consists of flattened, denucleated squames.
