Coloured TEM of herpes simplex viruses inside cell
Herpes simplex viruses. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a section through a cell infected with herpes simplex viruses. The viruses (yellow spheres) are accumulating in the cells inner nuclear membrane and have a core of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) genetic material. These are herpes simplex type I viruses, which are associated with oral cold sores. Herpes simplex is one of the most common viral parasites in humans. They cause small, fluid-filled blisters which may persist for weeks and, if touched, can spread the virus. Antiviral drugs may be helpful. Negatively stained. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of herpes simplex viruses inside a cell. The image reveals the intricate details of these yellow spheres, which are accumulating in the inner nuclear membrane of an infected cell. The core of each virus contains DNA, the genetic material responsible for their replication and survival. These particular viruses belong to the herpes simplex type I family, commonly associated with oral cold sores. Herpes simplex is one of the most prevalent viral parasites among humans, causing small blisters filled with fluid that can persist for weeks. It's important to note that touching these blisters can lead to spreading the virus. The scientific community has developed antiviral drugs that may prove helpful in managing this infection. However, further research is still needed to fully understand and combat herpes simplex viruses effectively. This visually striking TEM image not only provides valuable insight into the structure and behavior of these microscopic organisms but also serves as a reminder of their impact on human health. Through such detailed visualizations, scientists continue to deepen our understanding of viral infections like herpes simplex and work towards finding better treatment options for those affected by them.
