Allergen Hedera Helix Pollen Reproduction
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Ivy pollen (Hedera helix) through the lens of a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) reveals an up-close view of these tiny particles, magnified to x1390 and spanning 10cm wide. The image captures the essence of botany, offering a glimpse into the fascinating world of plant reproduction. Each individual grain is meticulously detailed, displaying its unique shape and texture. This microscopic marvel serves as a reminder that even the tiniest components in nature possess their own remarkable complexity. While visually stunning, it's important to note that Ivy pollen also carries allergenic properties. As one of nature's most common allergens, this SEM image sheds light on why some individuals may experience allergic reactions when exposed to ivy plants or their pollen. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into the wonders of our natural world. Through their expertise in capturing scientific imagery, they have allowed us to appreciate the hidden beauty found within even the smallest elements of life.
