Description
Light micrograph of a longitudinal section of an arteriole stained with the Gabe's aldehyde-fucsin method. This method stains the basement membranes surrounding the cross-sectioned smooth muscle cells of the tunica media. As these cells are very long, only part of the cross sections show the nucleus. Magnification: x900 when printed at 10 centimetres across.
