LM of a field of red and white blood cells
Light micrograph of a sample of normal human blood, showing numerous erythrocytes (red blood cells) and four leucocytes (white blood cells) with purple-stained, lobed nuclei. There are three major divisions of leucocytes: granulocytes, lymphocytes and monocytes. Together, they are involved in protecting the body against the invasion of foreign substances and in antibody production. Magnification: x400 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of a field of red and white blood cells. Through the lens of a light microscope, we are granted a glimpse into the fascinating world within our own bodies. The image reveals an abundance of erythrocytes, or red blood cells, which dominate the scene with their vibrant crimson hue. These vital components transport oxygen throughout our system, ensuring every cell receives its life-giving supply. Amidst this sea of red, four distinct leucocytes, or white blood cells, stand out prominently. Their nuclei stained in regal purple and lobed in shape, these defenders play a crucial role in safeguarding our health. The three major divisions of leucocytes - granulocytes, lymphocytes, and monocytes - work harmoniously to protect us against foreign invaders and produce essential antibodies. At 400 times magnification on a 35mm scale, this mesmerizing composition invites us to marvel at the complexity hidden within even the tiniest elements that make up our anatomy. It serves as a reminder that beneath our skin lies an extraordinary immune system constantly working to maintain balance and shield us from harm. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this snapshot of human biology's elegance without mentioning any commercial use intentions.
