Premium Framed Print : False-colour SEM of yeast cells
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
False-colour SEM of yeast cells
Yeast. Coloured scanning electron micrograph of yeast cells, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, commonly known as bakers or Brewers yeast growing on potato dextrose agar. Yeast is able to ferment sugar, producing alcohol & carbon dioxide in the process. It has long been used in the brewing of beer, the production of wine & in baking of leavened bread (carbon dioxide causes the dough to rise). Medically, it is used as a source of vitamin B1, riboflavin & nicotinic acid. Yeast divide rapidly by budding off new cells (visible here). They also reproduce sexually.

Budding Eumycota Fungal Fungi Fungus Mycology Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Yeast False Coloured
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 world of yeast cells in stunning detail. The false-colour scanning electron micrograph reveals a mesmerizing array of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, commonly known as bakers or Brewers yeast, thriving on potato dextrose agar. These remarkable organisms possess the unique ability to ferment sugar, resulting in the production of alcohol and carbon dioxide. Yeast has played an indispensable role throughout human history. From brewing beer to crafting fine wines and leavening bread, its contributions are immeasurable. In fact, it is the release of carbon dioxide that causes dough to rise during baking – a phenomenon beautifully captured here. Beyond culinary applications, yeast holds significant medical value as well. It serves as a rich source of essential vitamins such as B1 (thiamine), riboflavin, and nicotinic acid. This microscopic powerhouse not only rapidly divides by budding off new cells but also reproduces sexually. At a magnification of X430 at 35mm or X3000 at 10x8 inch size, this image offers us an extraordinary glimpse into the hidden realm of fungi. Its vibrant colors highlight the complexity and diversity found within nature's fungal kingdom. This awe-inspiring photograph from Science Photo Library reminds us that even in the tiniest corners of our world lies immense beauty waiting to be discovered and appreciated for both its scientific significance and aesthetic appeal.
