SEM of the cross-section of the G2 camel hair. Panels (a and b) exhibit the general structure of the hair. Panel (c) shows higher magnification of the vacuoles of the medulla. Panel (d) magnifies the cortex and wall of the cuticle. Hair cuticle (Cu), hair cortex (Co), medium-sized medulla (MM), hollow channels (HC), central canal (CC), fibers of cortex (F), vacuolated medulla (M), septa (S), large pore (LP), small pore (SP), pigment granules (G), minute holes (MH), and cuticle layers (CUL)
