Gland Duct Histology Cartoon
Cartoon shows the general organisation of salivary gland duct system.
Interlobular and interlobar ducts - embedded in the connective tissue surrounding the lobes and lobules of the glands
stratified cuboidal or stratified columnar epithelium
stratified squamous epithelium at the oral cavity opening
Intralobular ducts - in between the secretory acini within the lobules
Intercalated ducts - difficult to identify in mucous glands
Striated ducts - absent in purely mucous glands
