Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
Coloured SEM of fat cells in adipose tissue
Fat cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph of fat cells (orange), also known as adipocytes, in human adipose connective tissue. Connective tissue fibres (brown) are seen surrounding and supporting the fat cells. Almost the entire volume of each fat cell is occupied by a single lipid droplet formed largely of triglycerides. Fat not used in metabolic processes in the body is channelled towards these cells through small blood capillaries (not seen). Adipose connective tissue forms a thick layer under the skin. It functions as an insulating layer and energy store. Magnification: unknown

A2 (59.4 x 42cm) Poster Print
Discover the intricacy of life with our captivating Media Storehouse Poster Prints. This particular print showcases a stunning Coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph of human adipose tissue, revealing the vibrant world within - a mesmerizing array of fat cells, or adipocytes, in their natural habitat. Add this educational and visually appealing poster to your laboratory, classroom or office space to inspire curiosity and ignite discussions about the complexities of the human body.
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). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.
Estimated Product Size is 42cm x 59.4cm (16.5" x 23.4")
These are individually made so all sizes are approximate
Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with portrait (vertical) orientation to match the source image.
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of adipose tissue, specifically fat cells. The image reveals a coloured scanning electron micrograph of these orange-hued adipocytes, nestled within human adipose connective tissue. Surrounding and supporting the fat cells are brown connective tissue fibres, forming a protective network. Each fat cell is predominantly occupied by a single lipid droplet comprised mainly of triglycerides. While small blood capillaries remain unseen, they play a crucial role in directing unused fat towards these cells. Adipose connective tissue forms a substantial layer beneath our skin, serving as both an insulating shield and an energy reservoir. The magnification level used to capture this mesmerizing scene remains unknown but highlights the extraordinary complexity hidden within our bodies. This photograph not only delves into the anatomy of the human body but also emphasizes key aspects such as lipid metabolism and energy storage. Science Photo Library's expertise in capturing scientific marvels shines through this print, providing viewers with an opportunity to appreciate the wonders that exist at microscopic levels within us all.
