		Variations in the thickness of the epidermis (~0.1 mm in thin skin, 1 mm or more in thick skin) are mainly the result of variations in the thickness of the stratum corneum, although the other layers also vary in thickness.

	Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body. Page 1066
		—The epidermis and its appendages, consisting of the hairs, nails, sebaceous and sweat glands, are developed from the ectoderm, while the corium or true skin is of mesodermal origin.
		A considerable desquamation of epidermis takes place during fetal life, and this desquamated epidermis, mixed with sebaceous secretion, constitutes the vernix caseosa, with which the skin is smeared during the last three months of fetal life.
		The nerves of the skin terminate partly in the epidermis and partly in the corium; their different modes of ending are described on pages 1059 to 1061.

	Epidermis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		The epidermis is the most superficial layer of the skin and provides the first barrier of protection from the invasion of foreign substances into the body.
		The principal cell of the epidermis is called a keratinocyte.
		The epidermis is subdivided into five layers or strata, the stratum germinativum (SG), the stratum spinosum(SS), the stratum granulosum(SGR), the stratum lucidum(not seen in this photomicrograph) and the stratum corneum(SC) in which a keratinocyte gradually migates to the surface and is sloughed off in a process called desquamation.

		The epidermis does not contain any blood vessels but gets its oxygen and nutrients from the deeper layers of the skin.
		At the bottom of the epidermis is a very thin membrane, called the basement membrane, which attaches the epidermis firmly, though not rigidly, to the layer below.
		The junction between the epidermis and the dermis is not straight but undulates like rolling hills - more markedly so in some areas of the body than others.

	Skin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Skin is composed of three primary layers: the epidermis, which provides waterproofing and serves as a barrier to infection; the dermis, which serves as a location for the appendages of skin; and the hypodermis (subcutaneous adipose layer), which is called the basement membrane.
		The outermost epidermis consists of stratified squamous epithelium with an underlying connective tissue section, or dermis, and a hypodermis, or basement membrane.
		The epidermis contains no blood vessels, and cells in the deepest layers are nourished by diffusion from blood capillaries extending to the upper layers of the dermis.

		The epidermis is important in both vegetative and reproductive organs.
		During secondary growth the epidermis is often replaced by Periderm.
		Such epidermal peels are useful for the study of the shape of epidermal cells and their arrangement as well as the distribution and structure of stomata.

	Optical Depth of pigmented epidermis
		A very practical question is "how dark is the pigmented epidermis of a skin site?" During pulsed laser treatments of portwine stain lesions and other vascular lesions, the heat deposition in the epidermis is a limiting factor.
		For the in vivo spectrometer measurement, the photons have passed twice through the approximatley 60-µm thick epidermis, once entering and once escaping, so the pathlength is about 120 µm.
		Hence it is possible to assign a value of eumelanin concentration to a measured slope d(OD)/d(nm) of a pigmented epidermis.
