Handcrafted in Somso's proprietary material by Coburg artisans over 140 years, this approximately 70-times enlarged skin section — with separable layers forming a terrace view that reveals the hair follicle and root in three dimensions and section, the sweat gland, and the sensory organs of the skin — provides anatomy educators and dermatology programs with a comprehensive reference for teaching the histological structure of the integument.

Enlarged approximately 70 times, in SOMSO-PLAST®. The layers of the skin can be separated to form terraces, showing the follicle and root of the hair (three-dimensional and in section), the sweat gland, and the sensory organs of the skin. Separates into 4 parts. On a green base.
