Metal Print : Clostridium tetani bacterium
Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Clostridium tetani bacterium
False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of the bacterium Clostridium tetani, a Gram- positive, spore-forming, anaerobic bacillus (rod-shaped bacterium) that causes tetanus. Members of the Clostridium genus exist as soil saprophytes and as intestinal parasites of animals, giving rise to serious human diseases, including botulism, gas gangrene and severe intestinal infections, in addition to tetanus. Incidence of tetanus is common in societies where bare-footed humans live in close association with cattle & other domesticated animals, although the disease may result from trivial wounds to the skin

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a false-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of the notorious bacterium Clostridium tetani. This Gram-positive, spore-forming, anaerobic bacillus is responsible for causing the debilitating disease known as tetanus or lockjaw. Belonging to the Clostridium genus, this bacterium exists both as soil saprophytes and intestinal parasites in animals. However, its impact on human health is far from benign. In addition to tetanus, these bacteria can give rise to severe diseases such as botulism, gas gangrene, and life-threatening intestinal infections. The incidence of tetanus tends to be more prevalent in societies where humans live closely with domesticated animals like cattle. Interestingly enough, even minor skin wounds can lead to this condition if exposed to the bacteria. Through this magnified image captured using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), we gain an extraordinary glimpse into the world of these microscopic organisms that have significant implications for public health. The intricate details revealed by this photograph highlight the rod-shaped structure and distinct features of Clostridium tetani. Science Photo Library brings us yet another remarkable scientific visual that not only educates but also sparks curiosity about our complex microbial world.
