EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate world of biology and medicine. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a close-up view of an infected nail, revealing the presence of bacteria. The image beautifully captures the complexity and fragility of our biological makeup. The vibrant colours used in this false-coloured SEM add an artistic touch to the scientific subject matter, making it visually striking. It serves as a reminder that even within our own bodies, there exists a hidden universe teeming with life. Paronychia, a bacterial infection affecting the nail, is depicted here. This condition can cause discomfort and pain for those affected but fortunately can be treated with antibiotic drugs. The photograph emphasizes both the importance of proper medical care and highlights how microscopic organisms can impact our daily lives. Through this image, we gain insight into the microscopic realm where bacteria thrive on keratin-rich surfaces like nails. Staphylococci bacteria are visible in stunning detail under the scanning electron microscope (SEM). Such images not only contribute to scientific research but also inspire awe at nature's intricacies. Science Photo Library continues to provide us with breathtaking visuals that bridge artistry and science seamlessly. This particular print reminds us of both our vulnerability as humans and our ability to combat infections through medical advancements.
