Sclera However, acid burns, even severe ones, seldom result in loss of the eye. Alkali burns, on the other hand, such as those resulting from exposure to ammonium hydroxide or ammonium chloride or other chemicals with a pH above 11.5, will cause cellular tissue in the sclera to saponify and should be considered medical emergencies requiring immediate treatment. Yellowing of the sclera is a visual symptom of jaundice. In very rare but severe cases of kidney failure and liver failure, the sclera may turn black. Sclera The sclera, also known as the white of the eye, is the opaque, fibrous, protective,
Development of the human cerebral cortex during neurogenesis at mouse E10.5 to E12.5. Of the six layers found within the cortex, "layer 1 is the most superficial layer of the cortex...composed of Cajal-Retzius neurons and pyramidal cortex cells." This layer is unique in the aspect that these cells migrate to the outer edge of the cortex opposed to the migration experienced by the other 5 layers. Layer one is also characterized by expression of reelin, transcription factor T-box brain 1, and cortical migratory neuronal marker. The second and third layers, or the External Granular layer and External Pyramidal layer respectively, are formed around mouse E13.5 to
