F / col TEM of acinar cells in exocrine pancreas
False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) featuring two elongated, acinar cells of the exocrine human pancreas. Arranged in rounded glands, these cells secrete an alkaline, enzyme rich fluid into the duodenum via the small duct (in blue) at top of image. The pancreatic secretions act to neutralise the acidic contents of the stomach as they move into the small intestine. The pyramidal-shaped cells contain a rounded nucleus (blue) with a prominent nucleoli (red). Granules of pancreatic enzyme pass through the cytoplasm towards the duct at top. Magnification: x3000 at 6x7cm size

Acinus Exocrine Pancreas Secretory Cell
A2 (59.4 x 42cm) Poster Print
Discover the intricacies of the human body with our Media Storehouse Poster Prints featuring the captivating false-color Transmission Electron Micrograph (TEM) of acinar cells in the exocrine pancreas. This Science Photo Library image reveals the intricate structures of two elongated acinar cells, arranged in rounded glands, and sheds light on their essential role in secreting an alkaline substance. Bring the wonders of science into your workspace or home with our high-quality, vibrant poster prints. Perfect for education, research, or simply to inspire curiosity and wonder.
A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.
Estimated Image Size (if not cropped) is 42cm x 52.2cm (16.5" x 20.6")
Estimated Product Size is 42cm x 59.4cm (16.5" x 23.4")
These are individually made so all sizes are approximate
Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with portrait (vertical) orientation to match the source image.
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of acinar cells in the exocrine pancreas. Through false-color transmission electron microscopy, two elongated acinar cells are elegantly displayed within rounded glands. These specialized cells play a vital role in our digestive system by secreting an alkaline, enzyme-rich fluid into the duodenum via a small duct depicted in blue at the top of the image. The pancreatic secretions serve a crucial purpose: neutralizing the acidic contents from our stomach as they enter the small intestine. The pyramidal-shaped acinar cells contain a prominent nucleus portrayed in blue, accompanied by striking nucleoli highlighted in red. As we zoom into this microscopic world, granules of pancreatic enzymes can be observed traversing through the cytoplasm towards their ultimate destination -the duct at the top. At a magnification of x3000 and presented on a 6x7cm size format, this photograph captures not only the mesmerizing structure but also emphasizes its significance within our body's complex machinery. It is truly remarkable how these tiny components work harmoniously to ensure proper digestion and maintain overall health. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into cellular anatomy and function that leaves us marveling at nature's ingenuity.
