Sublingual gland
The sublingual gland is a compound tubuloalveolar gland, although mucous tubules predominate. Some regions of the gland, as seen here, are composed almost entirely of mucus-secreting tubules, with serous demilunes capping many tubules. Serous-secreting acini are clustered in other areas of the gland. Intralobular ducts are poorly developed in this organ. 800x
