Greetings Card : Norovirus particles, TEM
Cards from Science Photo Library
Norovirus particles, TEM
Norovirus particles. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of norovirus particles. Norovirus is a genus of RNA (ribonucleic acid) viruses that cause about half of all gastroenteritis cases around the world. The disease is characterised by nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and abdominal pain. The diarrhoea results in fluid loss and dehydration, which may become life-threatening in the young, the elderly, and the immunocompromised if not treated promptly. Magnification: x115, 000 when printed at 10 centimetres tall

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of norovirus particles, as captured through a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The false-colored image reveals the vibrant hues of these RNA viruses that are responsible for approximately half of all gastroenteritis cases worldwide. Norovirus infection is characterized by a range of unpleasant symptoms including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. However, its impact can be far more severe in vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems. Dehydration resulting from excessive fluid loss during bouts of diarrhea can become life-threatening if not promptly treated. At a magnification level of x115,000 when printed at 10 centimeters tall, this photograph allows us to appreciate the minuscule scale at which these pathogenic organisms exist. It serves as a reminder of their ability to cause widespread illness and highlights the importance of understanding their biology for effective prevention and treatment strategies. With its rich colors and intricate details, this image offers an intriguing glimpse into the world of microbiology and virology. It represents both a scientific marvel and a cautionary reminder about the potential dangers posed by infectious agents like noroviruses.
