F / col SEM of mirofilariae (larval roundworms)
False-colour scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the microfilariae (larval worms) of an unidentified nematode roundworm. Numerous nematodes cause disease in humans, living as parasites of the intestines, blood, lymph, subcutaneous & connective tissues. Examples include Enterobius vermicularis (Pinworm), Ascaris lumbricoides (Roundworm), Toxocara canis (Dog ascaris, the cause of visceral larva migrans) and Onchocerca volvulus (River blindness). Magnification: x57 at 35mm size, x114 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of microfilariae, the larval stage of roundworms. Through false-color scanning electron microscopy (SEM), we are granted a mesmerizing glimpse into the mysterious realm of an unidentified nematode roundworm. Nematodes, or roundworms, can wreak havoc on human health by acting as parasites in various parts of our bodies. They invade our intestines, blood, lymphatic system, subcutaneous tissue, and connective tissues causing diseases that range from discomfort to severe complications. Some notorious examples include Enterobius vermicularis (Pinworm), Ascaris lumbricoides (Roundworm), Toxocara canis (Dog ascaris responsible for visceral larva migrans), and Onchocerca volvulus (the culprit behind River blindness). At a magnification of x57 for 35mm size and x114 for 6x7cm size prints, this SEM image reveals the delicate details and complex structures present in these tiny larvae. The vibrant false-color technique employed enhances our understanding of their morphology. As nature enthusiasts delve into this photograph's depths, they will undoubtedly appreciate its significance within fields such as animal biology, zoology, wild life conservation efforts and research involving invertebrates like nematodes. This extraordinary visual representation is courtesy of Science Photo Library – a testament to their commitment to capturing scientific wonders while fostering curiosity about the natural world around us.
