Artwork of dividing E. coli bacterium
Artwork of the bacterium Escherichia coli during cell division. It belongs to the genus of Gram- negative rod-shaped bacteria and is generally motile. Escherichia coli has the ability to ferment carbohydrates, usually with the production of gas and is found in the intestines of man and many animals. This bacterium is usually not harmful but under certain conditions may cause infections of the urinogenital tract and diarrhoea in children. It is probably one of the best studied bacteria and it is widely used in bacteriological and genetic experiments

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the process of cell division in Escherichia coli, a Gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life this microbe's fascinating ability to multiply and thrive. Escherichia coli, commonly found in the intestines of humans and animals, is known for its motility and carbohydrate fermentation capabilities. While typically harmless, it can cause infections in the urinogenital tract and diarrhea in children under specific conditions. Considered one of the most extensively studied bacteria, Escherichia coli plays a crucial role in bacteriological and genetic experiments. Its widespread use stems from its well-documented characteristics that make it an ideal subject for scientific research. The artist behind this print skillfully captures the essence of bacterial division through their meticulous attention to detail. Each brushstroke highlights the complexity of this microscopic world while emphasizing the beauty inherent within these tiny organisms. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of both the wonders and potential dangers that exist within our own bodies. It serves as a reminder that even something as seemingly insignificant as a bacterium can hold great significance when examined through a scientific lens. This print from Science Photo Library offers us an opportunity to appreciate not only the artistic representation but also invites us into a deeper understanding of microbiology's vast realm.
