Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Coloured SEM of fallopian tube cilia & microvilli
Fallopian tube cells. Coloured high resolution scanning electron micrograph of cilia and micro- villi on the surface of the fallopian tube epithelium. Fallopian tubes are ducts that lead from the ovaries to the uterus. The epithelium consists of columnar cells, many of which have cilia (yellow). The cilia beat is towards the uterus, aiding transport of the egg from the ovary. Coloured red are the secretory cells with their microvilli projections. These cells secrete a substance (orange) that maintains a moist environment in the tube and may provide nutrients for the egg. Magnification: x2100 at 6x7cm size

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of the fallopian tube cells in stunning detail. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph, we are presented with a mesmerizing view of cilia and microvilli that adorn the surface of the fallopian tube epithelium. The fallopian tubes, essential ducts connecting the ovaries to the uterus, play a crucial role in human reproduction. The columnar cells forming the epithelium are prominently featured here, with many exhibiting vibrant yellow cilia. These delicate hair-like structures rhythmically beat towards the uterus, aiding in transporting eggs from the ovary. Adding a touch of red to this visual masterpiece are secretory cells adorned with microvilli projections. These remarkable cells secrete an orange substance that creates a moist environment within the tube while potentially providing vital nutrients for developing eggs. With a magnification level of x2100 at 6x7cm size, every minute detail is brought to life through this photograph's high resolution. It serves as a testament to both scientific exploration and artistic expression. This image delves into various aspects related to female reproductive anatomy and physiology: from highlighting key components like cilia and microvilli to emphasizing their roles within our intricate reproductive system. Science Photo Library has once again captured an awe-inspiring moment in time that invites us all to marvel at nature's wonders within our own bodies.
