Red blood cells embedded in tissue
Red blood cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph of red blood cells in tissue. Blood is composed mainly of red blood cells (erythrocytes). Red blood cells are pumped to all parts of the body. They contain haemoglobin which bonds with oxygen in a reversible reaction in the lungs, and then releases that oxygen to cells in tissues. They then remove carbon dioxide from the cells and return it to the lungs. Tissues are collections of similar cells acting together to perform specific functions in the body (eg. muscles).

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 network of red blood cells embedded within tissue. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph, we witness the vital role that these erythrocytes play in our bodies. As the main component of blood, they are tirelessly pumped to every nook and cranny, ensuring oxygenation and removal of carbon dioxide. The star players in this microscopic drama are none other than red blood cells themselves. Packed with haemoglobin, these tiny heroes bond with oxygen during their journey through the lungs. Once reaching various tissues, they release this life-giving element to nourish our cells. Simultaneously, they dutifully collect carbon dioxide waste from these very same cells and transport it back to the lungs for exhalation. Tissues depicted here represent collections of similar cells working harmoniously towards specific bodily functions like muscle movement or organ maintenance. This snapshot into physiological processes sheds light on how our bodies operate at a microscopic level. With a magnification factor of x1100 when printed 10 cm wide, this image offers an awe-inspiring glimpse into the intricacies of biology and haematology. It serves as a reminder that even though unseen by the naked eye, countless wonders unfold within us every single moment – all thanks to these remarkable red blood cells embedded in tissue.
