Premium Framed Print : Coloured TEM of three adenoviruses
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Coloured TEM of three adenoviruses
Adenoviruses. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of three adenovirus particles. Each virus has an icosahedral (20-sided) outer protein coat, or capsid (yellow). This encloses the virus DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) genetic material. The capsid is made up of 252 individual protein subunits known as capsomers. Adenoviruses often cause infections of the upper respiratory tract, and symptoms usually resemble those of the common cold. They are also associated with diarrhoea in children and eye infections such as conjunctivitis. Negatively stained. Magnification unknown

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 a coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of three adenovirus particles. The intricate details are brought to life as each virus exhibits an icosahedral outer protein coat, or capsid, in a vibrant shade of yellow. Within this protective layer lies the virus DNA, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid, which carries its genetic material. The capsid is composed of 252 individual protein subunits called capsomers, forming a robust structure that shields the viral DNA from external factors. Adenoviruses commonly infect the upper respiratory tract and often manifest symptoms resembling those of the common cold. Additionally, they have been associated with childhood diarrhoea and eye infections such as conjunctivitis. This stunning image was captured using negative staining techniques, enhancing visibility under magnification. While the exact level of magnification remains unknown, it is evident that this photograph offers an extraordinary glimpse into the microscopic world of viruses. Presented by Science Photo Library, this print serves as a reminder of both the beauty and complexity found within biology and virology. It highlights our ongoing fascination with understanding these tiny entities that can have significant impacts on human health.
