Poster Print : Hantavirus
Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
Hantavirus
Hantavirus. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a hantavirus. This causes haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) or Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). The virus contains ribonucleic acid (RNA) genetic material that is held inside a protein coat (capsid, green). Surface proteins (red) are seen on the capsid. Humans become infected by inhaling or ingesting excreta from infected rodents. Symptoms range from fever and muscle weakness (myalgia) to haemorrhage and cardiovascular instability, which can lead to death. Magnification unknown

Discover the intricacies of the natural world with Media Storehouse's Poster Prints featuring the captivating image of a Hantavirus, as seen through the lens of Science Photo Library. This coloured Transmission Electron Micrograph (TEM) reveals the minute details of this virus, which causes Haemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS) and Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS). Bring the mysteries of science into your home or office with this visually stunning and educational addition to your wall.
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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of the notorious Hantavirus. Known for causing two severe illnesses, haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS), this virus is a force to be reckoned with. The image reveals the intricate structure of the virus, which contains ribonucleic acid (RNA) genetic material enclosed within a protective protein coat called a capsid, depicted in vibrant green. The surface proteins of the hantavirus are strikingly displayed in red on the capsid, adding an element of visual intrigue to this microscopic world. Humans become infected by inhaling or ingesting excreta from rodents that carry the virus, making it crucial to exercise caution around these animals. Symptoms resulting from Hantavirus infection range from fever and muscle weakness to potentially life-threatening conditions such as haemorrhage and cardiovascular instability. This grim reality serves as a reminder of how dangerous viruses can be. While we may not know the exact magnification at which this image was captured, its impact remains undeniably powerful. It offers us insight into the pathogenic nature of hantaviruses and their ability to wreak havoc on human health.
