False colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) showing a serous acinus. The base of the acinar cells (blue) contains the nucleus (purple) and a very developed rough endoplasmic reticulum. In the apical region, many secretory granules, both immature (green) and mature (red), surround the lumen (purple) of the acinus.
