Collagen bundles, SEM
Collagen bundles. Scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of collagen bundles from the delicate connective tissue endoneurium. Endoneurium wraps around and between individual nerve fibres (axons), providing support and filling space between the nerve fibres. Endoneurium consists of collagen and elastin fibres and is found throughout the peripheral nervous system. Magnification not known.`

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of collagen bundles found in the delicate connective tissue known as endoneurium. Taken using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), this high-resolution image reveals the mesmerizing details of these collagen structures that play a crucial role in supporting and filling the spaces between individual nerve fibers. The endoneurium, depicted here, wraps around and intertwines with axons - the long thread-like extensions of nerve cells. Serving as a vital component of the peripheral nervous system, this specialized connective tissue is composed of both collagen and elastin fibers. While we do not have information about its exact magnification, one cannot help but marvel at how Science Photo Library has captured such an extraordinary close-up view. The photograph offers a glimpse into the microscopic world within our own bodies, reminding us of nature's remarkable complexity. Whether you are fascinated by anatomy or simply intrigued by scientific imagery, this print provides an awe-inspiring perspective on human physiology. It serves as a testament to Science Photo Library's commitment to capturing and sharing visually stunning images for educational purposes.
