Biohazard virus
Biohazard virus. Computer artwork showing a virus (green) in a safe marked with a biohazard symbol (red). Viruses contain a core of genetic material, either DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or RNA (ribonucleic acid) surrounded by a protein coat, or capsid, and sometimes an outer glycoprotein envelope. The spikes on the surface recognise and bind to a host cell. Once inside, viruses hijack the cells internal machinery to replicate themselves, before releasing themselves to infect further cells. Because of their infectious nature, viruses in the laboratory can pose a threat to human health and have to be kept secure to prevent them escaping

EDITORS COMMENTS
This computer artwork from Science Photo Library showcases the ominous and dangerous nature of a biohazard virus. The vivid green virus is depicted inside a secure safe, prominently marked with the iconic red biohazard symbol. This striking image serves as a reminder of the potential risks associated with viruses in laboratory settings. Viruses, whether containing DNA or RNA, possess a core of genetic material enveloped by a protein coat and sometimes an outer glycoprotein envelope. The spikes on their surface play a crucial role in recognizing and binding to host cells. Once infiltrating these cells, viruses exploit their internal machinery to replicate themselves before spreading further. The significance of this image lies in highlighting the need for stringent safety measures when dealing with infectious agents like viruses. Laboratories must ensure that these hazardous substances are securely contained to prevent any accidental release that could pose threats to human health. With its powerful symbolism encompassing concepts such as security, danger, risk, and biology, this illustration underscores the critical importance of maintaining strict protocols within scientific research facilities. It serves as a visual representation of our ongoing battle against infectious diseases while emphasizing the vital role played by virology and microbiology in understanding these biological hazards.
