Light microscopy of peripheral nerve fibres in longitudinal section. Enclosed by connective tissue the axons are covered with thin myelin sheaths stai
Light microscopy of peripheral nerve fibres in longitudinal section. Enclosed by connective tissue the axons are covered with thin myelin sheaths stained black. Scattered nuclei (purple) represent Schwann cells or fibroblasts. Green coloured globules are fat cells. Magnification x300 when narrow width printed at 10cm.
