Preparation 1[edit | edit source]
Title: Cerebellum - Clear Magnification (HE)
Description: 1 - the pial surface of the cerebellum, the pia mater also extends into the groove (sulcus) between the cerebellar turns (gyri)
and supplies blood vessels, cortex: 2 - Purkinje cells - the most prominent structure already visible under clear magnification,
3 - stratum moleculare, 4 - stratum granulare, 5 - white matter of the cerebellar hemisphere
Preparation 2[edit | edit source]
Title: Cerebellum - clear enlargement (cresyl violet)
Description: 1 - a groove between the cerebellar folia (convolutions), 2 - the pia mater on the surface of the cerebellum also extends into the sulci,
cortex: 3 - stratum moleculare, 4 - Purkinje cells - the most prominent structure visible already at clear magnification,
5 - stratum granulare, 6 - white matter of the cerebellar hemisphere
Preparation 3[edit | edit source]
Title: Cerebellum - Overview of Cortex Layers (HE)
Description: 1 – sulcus supplying pia mater ligament with blood vessels, 2 – stratum moleculare, 3 – Purkinje cells, 4 – stratum granulare
Preparation 4[edit | edit source]
Title: Cerebellum - cortical layers detail (HE)
Description: 1 – nuclei belonging to stratum moleculare cells (stellate and basket cells), 2 – Purkinje cells,
3 – nuclei belonging to stratum granulosum cells (granular and Golgi cells)
Preparation 5[edit | edit source]
Title: Cerebellum - an overview of the layers of the cortex (cresyl violet)
Description: 1 – pia mater with vessels, 2 – stratum moleculare, 3 – Purkinje cells, 4 – stratum granulare
Preparation 6[edit | edit source]
Title: Cerebellum - cortical layers detail (cresyl violet)
Description: 1 – nuclei belonging to stratum moleculare cells (stellate and basket cells), 2 – Purkinje cells,
3 – nuclei belonging to stratum granulosum cells (granular and Golgi cells), granular cells are the smallest cells in the human body
Preparation 7[edit | edit source]
Title: Cerebellar cortex – Purkinje cell in full glory (silvering)
Description: 1 – Purkinje cell, 2 – branching of the dendritic tree of the Purkinje cell in the stratum moleculare (3),
4 - stratum moleculare cells, 5 – stratum granulare with nuclei of granular cells (6)
Preparation 8[edit | edit source]
Title: Cerebellar cortex - overview of layers (immunohistochemical evidence)
Description: 1 – stratum moleculare, 2 – Purkinje cells, 3 – stratum granulare
