And in this final section here, again,
we're pointing out the epidermis to you here.
Again, it's a bit thicker in this particular section here.
I also wanted to point out,
in this section of skin that we're looking at here, it's a bit inflamed.
This animal has an itchy skin, we have an itchy red kind of skin.
And so
what that means is that the individual blood capillaries become more obvious.
So this arrow here is pointing out to you a small blood capillary with three or
four individual red blood cells that you can actually see quite nicely
sitting within that structure.
Often in a section of skin we don't readily see at these capillaries.
Because if the skin's not inflamed then they tend to be quite quiescent and
they're not so easy to pick up.
And the other point, you may be able to detect in this section that
there's actually a lot more round and oval nuclear type structures around here.
These are nuclei of inflammatory cells.
Normally in the dermis,
I mentioned before the skin is an immunological active cite so it's got
cells in it ready to response if there's pathogens that need to be dealt with.
But in the normal skin there shouldn't be this number of these nuclei dotted around.
These are nuclei of lymphocytes and other types of inflammatory cells that
are around in this area because this animal has an inflamed skin.
So that's just a little bit of some extra resources and
extra idea about what other sorts of things we can see in the skin.
