Transmission electron microscopy is an effective means of characterizing the phenotypic expression of epidermal cells. Epidermal cells cultured on plastic dishes proliferate into several layers and differentiate in the same manner as in vivo. Epidermal cells may be cultured on a collagen-based material which can be used as a synthetic epidermis for wound coverage instead of a skin autograft. The purpose of this study is to characterize and compare the morphology of epidermal cells grown on plastic, collagen sheets, and collagen sponges under similar cell culture conditions.
