Premium Framed Print : False-colour TEM of rotavirus particles
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
False-colour TEM of rotavirus particles
False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of rotavirus particles (virions). Individual virions consist of an icosahedral protein capsid containing a core of double-stranded RNA which is fragmented into ten different segments. They have no lipoprotein envelope and are 65-75 nanometres in diameter. Rotaviruses are the major cause of viral diarrhoea in newborn animals of many species, including human infants, lambs and calves. Magnification: x170, 000 at 6x7cm size, x85, 000 at 35mm size

Rna Virus Rota Virus False Coloured Virus
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 rotavirus particles, providing an extraordinary glimpse into the intricate world of these viral entities. Each individual virion is composed of an icosahedral protein capsid housing a core consisting of double-stranded RNA fragmented into ten distinct segments. Remarkably, these tiny particles lack a lipoprotein envelope and measure between 65 to 75 nanometres in diameter. Rotaviruses hold significant importance as they are the primary culprits behind viral diarrhoea in newborn animals across various species, including human infants, lambs, and calves. Their prevalence makes them responsible for causing gastroenteritis and related complications. The level of magnification employed to capture this image is truly staggering: at a size of 6x7cm, it was taken at x170,000 magnification; whereas at the smaller size of 35mm, it was captured at x85,000 magnification. Such high levels of detail allow us to appreciate the complexity and delicate structure that exists within these minuscule organisms. This remarkable photograph not only highlights the beauty found within microscopic worlds but also serves as a testament to the invaluable role played by scientific research in understanding and combatting diseases caused by RNA viruses like rotavirus.
