Coloured SEM of red blood cells, rouleau formation
Red blood cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph of red blood cells in rouleau formation. They often stack together in this way because of their shape. Red blood cells are the most abundant type of cell in human blood, accounting for 40% of blood volume. Each cubic millimetre of blood contains around five million of these flexible disc-shaped cells. The red colour comes from the protein haemoglobin, which picks up oxygen in the lungs and distributes it around the body. Because the cells have no nucleus and are subjected to constant physical pounding, they last only four months before being destroyed & broken down. Magnification: x3000 at 5x7cm size

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 red blood cells in rouleau formation. Through a coloured scanning electron micrograph, we can witness these vital cells stacking together due to their unique shape. Red blood cells are incredibly abundant in human blood, constituting 40% of its volume. In just one cubic millimeter of blood, approximately five million flexible disc-shaped cells can be found. The vibrant red hue that characterizes these cells is attributed to the presence of haemoglobin, a protein responsible for picking up oxygen from the lungs and distributing it throughout the body. However, despite their crucial role in oxygen transportation, red blood cells have a relatively short lifespan of only four months before they are broken down and destroyed due to constant physical pounding. At a magnification level of x3000 on a 5x7cm size print, this image allows us to appreciate the intricate details and delicate structure of these essential components within our bodies. It serves as a reminder of the remarkable complexity present within even the tiniest units that make up our anatomy.
