Does anyone have any good online links for epithelial tissue identifcation help? Like a youtube video taken from a light microscope? I have no problem identifying them from drawings and diagrams, but we all know they look completely different under a microscope. I can't seem to locate what I need. Unfortunately I can't go to the lab after class hours, so my lab time once a week is all I get there. Thanks!

I used Google image to search for examples. I liked the variety that option provided.
Another resource that we had available were little cameras that attached to our microscopes. We could snap pictures, save them and email them to ourselves. Does your lab have anything similar? It's great because you're looking at the slides that are most similar (if not exactly the same ones!) that you will see on your lab tests.
