Art of colony of Staphylococcus bacteria
Bacteria colony. Illustration of a colony of Staphylococcus aureus, a species of spherical, Gram positive, non-motile bacteria. Typically this bacteria is found in grape-like clusters. In the foreground, one bacterium is cut through to show: cell wall (outer purple), plasma membrane (white line), nucleoid of genetic material (purple), and granules in the cytoplasm (red). Staphylococcus species secrete exotoxins and many cause disease in humans: S. aureus is found on skin and mucous membranes. It causes boils and internal abscesses, and is the commonest cause of pyogenic (pus- forming) infections. Sometimes present harmlessly in the body, treatment is with antibiotic drugs

Bring the wonders of microbiology into your home or office with Media Storehouse's Poster Prints. This captivating image showcases the Art of Colony of Staphylococcus bacteria from Science Photo Library. Witness the intricate grape-like clusters of Staphylococcus aureus, a Gram positive, non-motile bacterium, in stunning detail. An excellent addition to any science enthusiast's collection or educational space, this print is a testament to the beauty and complexity of the microscopic world.
A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc).

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate artistry of a colony of Staphylococcus bacteria. The illustration depicts Staphylococcus aureus, a species known for its spherical shape, Gram-positive nature, and lack of motility. As commonly observed, these bacteria form clusters resembling grapes. In the foreground, one bacterium is meticulously dissected to reveal its inner components. The outer layer, represented by a vibrant purple hue, signifies the cell wall that provides structural support and protection. Adjacent to it lies the plasma membrane depicted as a crisp white line - an essential barrier regulating molecular exchange with its surroundings. The nucleoid region appears in striking purple tones symbolizing genetic material crucial for bacterial replication and survival. Notably visible within the cytoplasm are granules portrayed in vivid red shades representing various cellular components or storage materials vital for metabolic processes. Staphylococcus species possess remarkable abilities to secrete exotoxins which often lead to diseases in humans. Staphylococcus aureus specifically thrives on skin and mucous membranes causing ailments like boils and internal abscesses while being responsible for most pyogenic infections characterized by pus formation. Although sometimes innocuously present within our bodies, treatment typically involves antibiotic drugs targeting these resilient microorganisms. This mesmerizing artwork serves as both an educational tool and an aesthetic masterpiece capturing the beauty hidden within microscopic life forms such as bacteria.
