Coloured SEM of trichomes in lemon peel
Lemon peel. Coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) of zest" cells in the peel of a lemon, Citrus limoni. In this section the zest cells have been cut across and appear as the round, concave orange structures. These structures are specialised epidermal cells known as trichomes. They are glandular, secreting the oil which gives lemon peel its tangy flavour. The essence obtained from the peel is used extensively in the perfume industry.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of lemon peel at a microscopic level. The image, captured using a Coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM), reveals the fascinating structure of trichomes in the peel of a lemon. These trichomes are specialized epidermal cells that play a crucial role in giving lemon peel its distinctive tangy flavor. In this particular section, the zest cells have been cut across, resulting in round and concave orange structures. These structures are responsible for secreting the oil that gives lemon peel its aromatic essence. It is this essence that finds extensive use in the perfume industry due to its refreshing fragrance. The magnification used to capture this image allows us to appreciate the minute details present within these trichomes. At x30 magnification on a 6x7cm size, we can observe their unique shape and arrangement more closely. Zooming further at x74 on an 8x6" scale or x40 on a 10x7cm master size provides even greater clarity and insight into their cellular composition. Beyond their significance in perfumery, these trichomes also serve as vital components involved in reproduction and protection for plants like citrus limoni - commonly known as lemons. This photograph not only highlights nature's intricate design but also offers us an opportunity to marvel at the wonders hidden within everyday objects such as fruit peels.
