title: Species identification of epidermal cells in the human skin/nude mouse model with lectins.
abstract: A series of lectins were examined in order to find suitable epidermal species markers for the human skin/nude mouse model. In histological sections of formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded material it was found that the lectins GSA I and PNA could serve as suitable markers for murine and human epidermis, respectively.
