Fine Art Print : Renal corpuscle of kidney
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Renal corpuscle of kidney
Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a renal corpuscle in the kidney. The renal corpuscle is formed by the glomerulus (red), the convoluted capillary at centre, which is surrounded by the Bowmans capsule, partly visible here as a white-brown menbrane at centre right. In the glomerulus blood is filtered. The filtrate is composed of waste and toxic products such as urea and chloride and nutrient substances. The filtrate is collected by the Bowmans capsule and then distributed to a network of tubules called nephrons two of which are visible coloured blue. Magnification: x330 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of a renal corpuscle in the kidney, captured using a coloured scanning electron microscope (SEM). The renal corpuscle consists of the glomerulus, depicted in vibrant red at the center, surrounded by Bowman's capsule. In this image, we can observe Bowman's capsule as a white-brown membrane towards the right. The glomerulus plays a crucial role in blood filtration within our bodies. As blood flows through it, waste and toxic products like urea and chloride are filtered out along with essential nutrients. This resulting mixture is known as filtrate. Bowman's capsule acts as an important collector for this filtrate before distributing it to nephrons – networks of tubules responsible for further processing and regulation within the urinary system. Two nephrons colored blue are visible in this magnified image. With a magnification level of x330 at 6x7cm size, this SEM photograph provides us with an extraordinary glimpse into the microscopic world hidden within our kidneys. It not only highlights the normal anatomy but also emphasizes its significance for maintaining overall human body health. Captured by Science Photo Library, renowned for their expertise in scientific imagery, this stunning print offers both educational value and aesthetic appeal to anyone interested in exploring subjects such as kidney function or microscopic photos.
