The Specialised Function of the Ciliated Epithelium 

Please view at 720p. This animation describes the normal function of the ciliated airway epithelium. Foreign bodies we inhale, such as dust, pollen and microbes become trapped in mucous, which is brushed up and out of the airways by the waving cilia. This animation was created for the Gene Technology Access Centre, Melbourne, Australia www.gtac.edu.au
