Structure of the Cuticle of Wool
Nature, 1946THE flattened cells, forming the imbricated scaly sheath of the keratin fibres, wool and hair, appear comparatively structureless under the optical microscope ; using the electron microscope (R.C.A. Type EMU), however, we have been able to distinguish several component structures of the cuticle cells of wool both by their appearance and by their ...

Chemical composition of the nematode cuticle. Observations of the whole cuticle
Experimental Parasitology, 1956Abstract 1. (1) The following sixteen amino acids have been detected in the hydrolysed cuticles of Ascaris lumbricoides, Toxocara mystax and Strongylus equinus: glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, threonine, cystine, cysteic acid, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, lysine, arginine, histidine, tyrosine, tryptophane, proline and hydroxy-proline. 2.

Cuticle itself as a central and dynamic player in shaping cuticle
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2017The wide variety of external morphologies has underlain the evolutionary success of insects. The insect exoskeleton, or cuticle, which covers the entire body and constitutes the external morphology, is extracellular matrix produced by the epidermis. How is cuticle shaped during development?

Insect Biochemistry, 1975
Abstract A quantitative method of fractionation is described. Soluble and residual protein fractions together constitute at least 60 per cent of the integuments. A chitin fraction comprises about 20 per cent of the larval skin and about 25 to 35 per cent of the pupal coverings.

STUDIES ON PLANT CUTICLE: THE CUTIN COMPONENT OF THE CUTICLES OF LEAVES
Annals of Applied Biology, 1959Methods are described for the chemical separation from leaf material of the ventral and dorsal surface cuticular membranes and for the determination of cutin in the membranes and leaf tissues.The cutin contents of the cuticular membranes separated from leaves of laurel, rhododendron, and Euonymus, and of leaf tissues of cauliflower, red beet, banana ...
