Premium Framed Print : Illustration of structures of a typical bacterium
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Illustration of structures of a typical bacterium
Cutaway illustration of the internal structure of a typical bacterial cell. This example is of a capsulated bacterium; the capsule (light green) forms the outer of 3 layers, covering the cell wall (dark green) and the inner cytoplasmic membrane. Bacteria lack a nuclear membrane & hence a well-defined nucleus. Here, the nuclear body is represented as the blue, spherical feature towards the top of the cell. An invagination into the cytoplasmic membrane is featured at lower right. Growing bacteria contain numerous ribosomes (red spheres) within their cytoplasm, that are involved in the assembly of proteins. Other inclusions act as reserves of energy & nutrients

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 from Science Photo Library provides a detailed illustration of the internal structure of a typical bacterium. The image showcases a cutaway view, allowing us to explore the intricate layers and components that make up this microscopic organism. At first glance, we are drawn to the outermost layer, known as the capsule, depicted in a light green shade. This protective covering envelops both the cell wall, represented by dark green hues, and the inner cytoplasmic membrane. Unlike eukaryotic cells, bacteria lack a well-defined nucleus; however, here we can observe a spherical blue feature towards the top of the cell representing its nuclear body. The image also highlights an invagination into the cytoplasmic membrane at lower right – an interesting structural detail worth examining further. Within the cytoplasm itself lies numerous red spheres called ribosomes responsible for protein assembly. These tiny structures play a crucial role in bacterial growth. Furthermore, this print emphasizes other inclusions within bacteria that act as reserves of energy and nutrients. These vital resources ensure their survival and ability to thrive in various environments. Overall, this magnified image offers an exceptional glimpse into the world of microorganisms through its meticulous depiction of bacterial structures. It serves as a valuable resource for those interested in microbiology or bacteriology while showcasing Science Photo Library's commitment to providing high-quality scientific visuals without commercial intent.
