Helicobacter pylori bacteria, SEM C016 / 9136
Helicobacter pylori bacteria. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of Helicobacter pylori bacteria (green) in the stomach. H. pylori is a Gram-negative spiral-shaped bacterium found in the mucous lining of the stomach. It causes gastritis, and is also the most common cause of stomach ulcers. It may also be a cause or co-factor for gastric cancer as its presence increases the risk of developing stomach tumours. Magnification: x5000, when printed 10cm wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Helicobacter pylori bacteria, a Gram-negative spiral-shaped bacterium that resides in the mucous lining of the stomach. The image, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), reveals these green-colored bacteria in intricate detail. Helicobacter pylori is notorious for causing gastritis and is also recognized as the primary cause of stomach ulcers. Moreover, its presence significantly increases the risk of developing gastric cancer, making it a potential co-factor in tumour formation within the stomach. The magnification level used to capture this image was x5000, resulting in an incredibly detailed depiction when printed at 10cm wide. This photograph not only highlights the unique structure and characteristics of H. pylori but also offers insight into its pathogenic nature. By exploring this microscopic world through scientific imaging techniques like SEM, we gain a deeper understanding of how microorganisms interact with our bodies and impact our health. Images like these serve as valuable tools for researchers studying bacterial infections and contribute to advancements in microbiology. This stunning print by Steve Gschmeissner from Science Photo Library serves as a reminder of both the beauty and complexity found within our own biological systems while shedding light on one particular bacterium's role in human health and disease.
