Coloured SEM of the stomach mucosa & gastric pit
Stomach wall. Coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) of the surface of the fundus region of the human stomach. At centre is a dark opening known as a gastric pit. Under this is the location of the secretory glands that produce digestive enzymes and acids which break down food. Around the gastric pit are a layer of epithelial cells. These cells produce a thick layer of mucus (not seen here) which lines and protects the wall of the stomach from self-digestion. The fundus is the uppermost section of the stomach which, together with the body of the stomach, contains such gastric glands. Magnification: x 1090 at 5x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of the stomach mucosa and gastric pit, providing a glimpse into the fascinating world of our digestive system. The coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) reveals the surface of the fundus region in stunning clarity. At the heart of this image lies a mysterious dark opening known as a gastric pit, which serves as an entrance to a secret realm hidden beneath. Here, deep within the stomach wall, lie specialized secretory glands responsible for producing vital digestive enzymes and acids that tirelessly break down our food. Surrounding this central feature are layers of epithelial cells, forming a protective barrier against self-digestion. These remarkable cells work tirelessly to produce a thick layer of mucus that lines and shields the delicate walls of our stomach from harm. The fundus region depicted here represents the uppermost section of our stomach. Together with its companion body, it houses these essential gastric glands that play such a crucial role in digestion. With an astonishing magnification level of x1090 at 5x7cm size, this mesmerizing print allows us to appreciate both the beauty and complexity found within our own bodies. It is truly awe-inspiring to witness how nature has intricately designed every aspect of our anatomy for optimal function and well-being.
