A RAPID METHOD FOR PREPARING EPIDERMAL SLICES OF REPRODUCIBLE THICKNESS FROM EXCISED RAT SKIN

An apparatus is described with which epidermal slices of reproducible thickness can be rapidly cut from excised rat skin. It has been demonstrated that the weight of an epidermal slice per unit area gives an assessment of the average thickness of that slice.
