Frog skins mounted between chambers without compression, with a liquid insulator and a tissue adhesive, were studied in vitro. Since voltage and electrical resistance per unit area were unchanged by a tenfold decrease in area of skin studied, it is concluded that these mounting techniques do not produce edge damage and consequently provide a means for study of the skin in its absence.
