Light micrograph of the inner zone of the wall of an elastic artery showing a very thin tunica intima and the tunica media, very rich in elastic sheets or lamellae. At the border between the two are one or two elastic sheets of greater thickness. Orcein stain for elastin. The image is, in reality, the negative of the microscopic image. In this way, the elastic elements, which now appear in bright green, stand out even more clearly. Magnification: x360 when printed at 10 centimetres across. | |
