Compound acinar gland

This compound acinar gland shows acini typically organized like a cluster of grapes.  Each acinus represents a single grape and the intralobular ducts represent the smallest stems.  The acinar cells are filled with zymogen (enzyme-containing) secretory granules.  Parotid gland 1000x
