Haemolymph samples
Haemolymph samples in Eppendorf tubes. Haemolymph (body fluid) is obtained from the body cavity (coelom) of insects that have been exposed to bacteria and fungi to trigger an immune response. The haemolymph is preserved by freezing, before being screened in search of new antibiotic, anti- inflammatory, anti-viral and anti-cancer drugs by a company called Entomed, based in Strasbourg in France. Between 1999 and 2003, Entomed analysed more than 175 novel molecules with potential medical effects

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of Haemolymph samples neatly arranged in Eppendorf tubes. These tiny vials contain the precious body fluid obtained from the coelom, or body cavity, of insects that have been intentionally exposed to bacteria and fungi. The purpose behind this intriguing process is to trigger an immune response within these insects. The Haemolymph samples depicted here are meticulously preserved through freezing, ensuring their integrity for further investigation. This crucial step allows them to be screened by Entomed, a renowned company based in Strasbourg, France. Specializing in research and development within the field of medicine, Entomed utilizes these frozen samples as part of their quest to discover new antibiotics, anti-inflammatory agents, antiviral medications, and even potential anti-cancer drugs. Between 1999 and 2003 alone, Entomed diligently analyzed over 175 novel molecules extracted from these Haemolymph samples with promising medical effects. Their tireless efforts contribute significantly to advancing clinical practices and improving healthcare outcomes worldwide. This thought-provoking image not only highlights the importance of preserving biological specimens but also underscores the critical role played by scientific research in our ongoing battle against diseases. It serves as a testament to the dedication and ingenuity exhibited by professionals at companies like Entomed who tirelessly work towards finding innovative solutions for better health outcomes for all humankind.
