Crocodilian skin in 3D
"Crocodilian skin in 3D" explores crocodilian skin from the 3rd dimension under a microscope and explains how and why defects occur. A must-do mini-course for anyone involved in crocodilian skin production!
Start thinking in 3D
When we understand the ultrastructure of the crocodilian skin, we begin to understandĀ the impact the different blemishes have.
What happens during tanning?
Explaining what happens to the skin during tanning helps make sense of why lesions are visible on the tanned product.
Exploring causation
Knowing exactly what is causing skin defects is the only way to devise efficient and effective prevention strategies.
"I can't see skin defects on my crocodiles"
If this sounds familiar, this mini-course is for you!
Topics include: crocodile skin structure, what happens during tanning and the main causes of skin downgrades including what diagnostic tool are available and proven effective prevention strategies.
