Pancreas cell, SEM
Pancreas cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of an acinar (exocrine) pancreatic cell. Acinar cells produce and excrete digestive enzymes to the small intestine, via the pancreatic ducts. The enzymes are excreted in vesicles known as zymogen granules (purple). The enzymes are activated in the small intestine and aid the breakdown of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Magnification: x1100 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a pancreas cell, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals an exocrine pancreatic cell called an acinar cell, responsible for producing and releasing digestive enzymes into the small intestine through the pancreatic ducts. These enzymes are stored within zymogen granules, depicted here in striking purple hues. The magnified image allows us to appreciate the complex structure of this vital cellular component. With a magnification of x1100 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, every detail is brought to life. This false-colored SEM image provides valuable insights into the biology and anatomy of these cells. As we delve deeper into its significance, we learn that these enzymes play a crucial role in breaking down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins during digestion. They aid in transforming food particles into absorbable nutrients that nourish our bodies. Beyond its scientific value, this photograph serves as a testament to the wonders hidden within our own human body. It reminds us of the intricate physiological processes constantly occurring beneath our skin's surface. Science Photo Library has once again delivered an awe-inspiring glimpse into nature's microscopic realm with this mesmerizing portrayal of a pancreas cell.
