Nerve cells
Immunofluorescent Light Micrograph of neuron cells and astrocytes in mammalian spinal cord. Here, neuron cells stain red: the cell body appears pink, with nerve fibres faintly seen which are the route of transmission of nerve impulses. In the foreground are astrocyte cells (green): star- shaped connective tissue cells which provide support and nutrients for the neurons. It is thought that astrocytes may take part in infor- mation storage. Blue dots are the nuclei of other support cells. Immunofluorescence is a staining technique which uses antibodies to attach fluores- cent dyes to specific tissues and molecules in the cell. Magnification x400 at 5x7cm, x375 at 6x4.5cm x200 at 35mm

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 beauty of nerve cells in the mammalian spinal cord. In this immunofluorescent light micrograph, neuron cells are depicted as a mesmerizing shade of red, with their cell bodies appearing pink and faintly visible nerve fibers serving as the pathway for transmitting nerve impulses. The foreground is adorned with vibrant green astrocyte cells, star-shaped connective tissue cells that provide crucial support and nourishment to the neurons. Interestingly, it is believed that these astrocytes may also play a role in information storage within the nervous system. The blue dots scattered throughout represent the nuclei of other support cells present in this microscopic world. This stunning image was captured using immunofluorescence staining technique, which utilizes antibodies to attach fluorescent dyes specifically to tissues and molecules within the cell. With a magnification level ranging from x200 at 35mm up to an impressive x400 at 5x7cm or x375 at 6x4.5cm, this photograph offers viewers an extraordinary glimpse into the complex anatomy of our nervous system on a minuscule scale. Science Photo Library has once again delivered an awe-inspiring portrayal of cellular subjects through their expertise in capturing microscopic photos like this one.
