Sections of frontal skin samples from the affected calf and a control. Transversal sections of the skin of control (a) and HED animals (b) stained with hematoxylin-eosin-safran. Note the reduced size of sweat glands (sw), sebaceous glands (se), and hair follicles (hf) in the affected (b) versus control (a) animals. Longitudinal sections of the skin of control (c) and HED animals (d) stained with a Roan solution (Orange G, aniline blue staining and Kernechtrot). Note the increased density but reduced size of sebaceous glands (se), and pilary canals (pc) in the affected (d) versus control (c) animals
