Poster Print : False colour TEM of a single neutrophil
Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
False colour TEM of a single neutrophil
False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a single neutrophil, the most common type of white blood cell. A prominent feature of a neutrophil is its multi-lobed nucleus (in red, green/yellow). A mature cell usually has five lobes, connected by fine strands of nuclear material. In the cytoplasm, spherical membrane- bound granules appear in red. Neutrophils have an important role in the acute inflammatory response to tissue damage, mobilising to engulf & clear-up cell debris & bacteria. Defunct neutrophils form the main component of pus. Magnification: x6, 750 at 6x7cm size, x3, 000 at 35mm size

Granulocyte Immune Neutrophil White Blood Cell Cells Polymorph
A2 (59.4 x 42cm) Poster Print
Discover the intricacies of the microscopic world with our Media Storehouse Poster Prints. This captivating image showcases a False-colour Transmission Electron Micrograph (TEM) of a single neutrophil, a white blood cell that plays a vital role in our immune system. The multi-lobed nucleus, highlighted in red, is a prominent feature of this essential cell. Bring the wonders of science into your home or office with our high-quality, vibrant poster prints, perfect for inspiring curiosity and igniting conversation.
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 Image Size (if not cropped) is 52cm x 42cm (20.5" x 16.5")

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a false-color transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a single neutrophil, the most prevalent type of white blood cell in our body. The image highlights the distinguishing characteristic of a neutrophil - its multi-lobed nucleus, depicted in vibrant shades of red and green/yellow. Typically, a mature neutrophil possesses five lobes interconnected by delicate strands of nuclear material. The cytoplasm surrounding the nucleus reveals spherical membrane-bound granules portrayed in striking red hues. These granules play a crucial role as they aid neutrophils in their vital function during acute inflammatory responses to tissue damage. When triggered, these remarkable cells mobilize swiftly to engulf and eliminate cellular debris and harmful bacteria from our system. Interestingly, defunct neutrophils constitute the primary component of pus formation when infections occur. This image provides an extraordinary glimpse into the intricate world within our bodies where these powerful defenders tirelessly combat threats to maintain our health. With magnification levels reaching x6,750 at 6x7cm size or x3,000 at 35mm size, this photograph captures the stunning details that lie hidden beneath the surface. Its scientific significance lies not only in understanding human anatomy but also shedding light on immune response mechanisms involving white blood cells like neutrophils – true heroes safeguarding us from harm's way.
