Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Coloured TEM of Chlamydia sp. bacteria
False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a no. of spherical bacteria Chlamydia sp. (yellow), a genus of virus-like micro- organisms that cause disease in man & birds (unlike most bacteria Chlamydia lives & grows only inside cells). Chlamydia trachomatis is responsible for some 50% of cases of non-specific urethritis (NSU) in the U.K. (which if untreated may lead to serious pelvic inflammatory disease in women, possibly leading to sterility). When diagnosed early, chlamydial infections are readily treated with a 2-3 week course of antibiotics (tetracycline or erythromycin). Magnification: X 17, 600 at 35mm 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 a false-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of Chlamydia sp. bacteria, revealing their spherical shape and vibrant yellow hue. Chlamydia is a genus of virus-like micro-organisms that pose a threat to both humans and birds, causing various diseases. Unlike most bacteria, Chlamydia has the unique ability to thrive exclusively inside host cells. Among its numerous strains, Chlamydia trachomatis stands out as it accounts for approximately 50% of cases related to non-specific urethritis (NSU) in the United Kingdom. If left untreated, NSU can progress into severe pelvic inflammatory disease in women, potentially leading to infertility. Fortunately, early detection allows for effective treatment through a course of antibiotics lasting two to three weeks such as tetracycline or erythromycin. This emphasizes the importance of timely diagnosis when dealing with chlamydial infections. The magnification level used for this TEM image was an impressive X 17,600 at 35mm size. The photograph not only provides valuable insights into the structure and characteristics of these bacterial organisms but also serves as a reminder of the significance in understanding and combating sexually transmitted diseases like chlamydia. This remarkable image from Science Photo Library sheds light on the microscopic world where microbes such as Chlamydia sp. reside—a realm crucial for bacteriology research and microbiology advancements aimed at safeguarding public health worldwide.
