Description
High magnification light micrograph of a renal cortex stained with the periodic acid method of Schiff (PAS). In the proximal convoluted tubules, the PAS method highlights the basement membrane and the brush border bordering the lumen. There are also several distal convoluted tubules (two longitudinally sectioned on the right edge of the image), with a lower epithelium and lacking a brush border at the luminal edge. Magnification: x360 when printed at 10 centimetres across.
