About this work
Description
Transmission electron micrograph showing
conjunctival columnar epithelial cells containing
pigment granules (melanosomes). Two of the nuclei
to the left of the picture have visible nucleoli
and desmosomes can be seen between the two rows of
epithelial cells. The basement membrane lies to
the right of the epithellial cells and a small
capillary can be seen to the far right of the
picture. The epithelial cell nuclei are
approximately 5nm in diameter.
