Hepatitis B viruses, TEM
Hepatitis B viruses. Coloured transmission elect- ron micrograph (TEM) of hepatitis B viruses (large lime green circles), a cause of liver inflamm- ation. The smaller circles and the rod-shaped objects are surplus viral coat (capsid) protein from infected liver cells. These non-infectious antigens (foreign proteins) are used to make vaccines against hepatitis B. The complete viruses are called Dane particles. Hepatitis B is transmitted by infected blood, passed mainly through sexual intercourse or shared hypodermic needles. Symptoms include headache, fever, weakness and jaundice. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Hepatitis B viruses, captured using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The large lime green circles represent the actual hepatitis B viruses, which are known to cause inflammation in the liver. Surrounding these viral particles are smaller circles and rod-shaped objects, which are surplus viral coat proteins derived from infected liver cells. Although non-infectious themselves, these antigens play a crucial role in developing vaccines against hepatitis B. The complete form of these viruses is referred to as Dane particles. Hepatitis B is primarily transmitted through infected blood and can be contracted via sexual intercourse or shared hypodermic needles. Symptoms of this viral infection include headaches, fever, weakness, and jaundice. While the magnification level used for capturing this image remains unknown, it highlights the intricate details of these pathogenic agents responsible for causing liver infections. This photograph serves as a valuable resource for researchers studying virology and microbiology by providing an up-close look at the structure and characteristics of hepatitis B viruses.
