Macrophage, SEM

Macrophage. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a macrophage white blood cell. Macrophages are cells of the bodys immune system. They are found in the tissues rather than in the circulating blood. Macrophages recognise foreign particles, including bacteria, pollen and dust, and phagocytose (engulf) and digest them. Magnification: x4000 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the remarkable beauty and complexity of a macrophage, a key player in our body's immune system. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted an up-close view of a single macrophage white blood cell, meticulously captured by renowned photographer Steve Gschmeissner. Macrophages, unlike other white blood cells that circulate in our bloodstream, reside within tissues where they tirelessly patrol for foreign invaders. Their primary mission is to identify and engulf harmful particles such as bacteria, pollen, and dust through phagocytosis – a process beautifully depicted here. At 4000 times magnification when printed at 10 centimetres wide, every intricate detail becomes apparent. The vibrant colours bring life to the otherwise invisible world within us. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an educational tool for those fascinated by science and health. As we gaze upon this image, let us marvel at the incredible defense mechanisms our bodies possess. It reminds us of the tireless efforts undertaken by these unsung heroes to keep us healthy and protected from harm. Incorporate this stunning piece into your collection today to celebrate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its profound significance in understanding our immune system's inner workings.
