Striated duct
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A striated duct is a gland duct which connects an intercalated duct to an interlobular duct. It is characterized by its folded membrane.[1] [2]
Their epithelium can be simple cuboidal or simple columnar.[3]
Striated ducts are part of the intralobular ducts.
They are found in the submandibular gland[4][5] and the parotid gland.[6]
They are not present in pancreas.
