Glass Coaster : False-colour TEM of collagen fibres
Home Decor from Science Photo Library
False-colour TEM of collagen fibres
False colour transmission electron micrograph showing fibrils of collagen, the principal component of white connective tissue. The fibrils have been shadowed with a heavy metal to show their banded structure. Collagen is a tough fibrous protein, which is found in the skin, cartilage, bone, ligaments & tendons. It is relatively inelastic, but has a high tensile strength. Magnification: X8, 600 at 35mm size. Original is BW print P780/011. Yellow tint

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of collagen fibres, captured through a false-colour transmission electron micrograph. The image reveals the banded structure of these vital fibrils, which serve as the primary building blocks of white connective tissue. To emphasize their composition, heavy metal shadowing has been employed, resulting in an awe-inspiring visual representation. Collagen is an incredibly resilient and tough fibrous protein that plays a crucial role in various parts of our body such as the skin, cartilage, bone, ligaments, and tendons. While it may lack elasticity to some extent, its tensile strength is remarkably high. This photograph provides us with a glimpse into this remarkable substance that supports and connects different components within our anatomy. At a magnification level of X8,600 at 35mm size, every detail becomes apparent in this black-and-white print P780/011 from Science Photo Library. However, what truly sets this image apart is the addition of a yellow tint that adds depth and intrigue to the overall aesthetic. Whether you are fascinated by human anatomy or simply appreciate scientific beauty captured on film – this mesmerizing print offers both insight into collagen's structural complexity and serves as an exquisite piece for any admirer's collection.
