Metal Print : Klebsiella pneumoniae bacterium
Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Klebsiella pneumoniae bacterium
False colour transmission electron micrograph (shadow technique) of Klebsiella pneumoniae, a rodlike bacterium associated with pneumonia & other respiratory infections in humans. Most Klebsiella species live harmlessly in the human respiratory, intestinal & urinogenital tracts. Other species are pathogenic. The hairlike structures fringing certain bacteria at certain times are called pili. There are several types of pili serving different functions; the best studied are the sex pili involved in the transfer of DNA from donor to receipent cells during conjugation. This cell is undergoing division (binary fission). Mag: X 17, 650 (at 35mm size)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Klebsiella pneumoniae bacterium, a rodlike microorganism that is commonly associated with respiratory infections such as pneumonia in humans. In this false-color transmission electron micrograph, the shadow technique highlights the intricate details of this bacterium. While most species of Klebsiella reside harmlessly within the human respiratory, intestinal, and urinogenital tracts, some strains can cause pathogenic infections. The hair-like structures seen fringing certain bacteria at specific times are known as pili. These pili serve various functions, with sex pili being extensively studied for their involvement in DNA transfer during conjugation between donor and recipient cells. The image also reveals that this particular cell is undergoing division through binary fission – a process by which one cell divides into two identical daughter cells. With a magnification of X 17,650 (at 35mm size), this transmission electron micrograph provides an extraordinary glimpse into the microscopic world of bacteria. As part of Science Photo Library's collection on microbiology and bacteriology, this photograph offers valuable insights into Klebsiella pneumoniae and its role in causing respiratory diseases. It serves as a reminder of both the beauty and complexity found within these tiny organisms that impact our health and well-being.
