11.21 Section of a submandibular gland

Version française

A submandibular gland.

This gland is composed mainly of serous acini (S), but some acini are mixed and show both serous and mucous cells (M).

This field shows striated ducts (*) and a larger non-striated intralobular duct (+). The intralobular duct shows occasional basal cells (arrowheads) among the columnar epithelial cells.
