Abstract
The stratum corneum can be dissociated into single squames by several extraction methods: mechanically, with organic solvents, and with detergents. We have performed studied of reaggregation from single squames prepared by these methods. Mechanically dispersed corneocytes recombined into a lamellar-like structure closely resembling intact stratum corneum. Squames obtained by dissociation in ether formed a multilayered structure which differed from the intact tissue in the collapse of the bilayered lamellar structure into a single lucent band with osmiophilic deposits. Squames obtained after extraction with detergent failed to reaggregate.
