Three-Dimensional Graphic Reconstruction of the Insect Exoskeleton Through Confocal Imaging of Endogenous Fluorescence

The exoskeleton of the cockroach leg was imaged via confocal microscopy to generate digital graphic reconstructions of its three-dimensional structure. The cuticle is autofluorescent and can be visualized without staining, but is maximally imaged in aldehyde-fixed preparations viewed under krypton-a...
