Low power light microscope micrograph of human glabrous skin. From top, the epidermis, a keratinized stratified squamous epithelium showing a prominent horny layer, the dermis and hypodermis. The hypodermis is identified by the presence of adipose tissue lobules. Eccrine sweat glands can be seen on the limit between dermis and hypodermis. H&E stain. The scale bar corresponds to 2 mm.
