LM of staphylococcus aureus
Light micrograph of the spherical bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus (gram positive) scattered on agar. These bacteria are commonly found on healthy human skin & mucous membranes, particularly the mouth. They may, however, cause boils, usually by entering through a hair follicle or break in the skin. They are also responsible for internal abscesses & any acute suppurative infection. They are commonly found in grapelike clusters. Mag: X 420 (at 35mm size)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a light micrograph of Staphylococcus aureus, a gram-positive spherical bacteria. These tiny organisms are commonly found on the skin and mucous membranes of healthy individuals, especially in the mouth. However, their presence can sometimes lead to troublesome conditions such as boils when they penetrate through hair follicles or breaks in the skin. Additionally, Staphylococcus aureus is responsible for causing internal abscesses and various acute suppurative infections. The image reveals these bacteria scattered across an agar medium, resembling clusters of grapes under magnification. With a magnification level of X 420 at 35mm size, this photograph provides an intricate view into the world of microbes and bacteriology. Staphylococcus aureus is one among many microorganisms that play significant roles in microbiology research. Its study helps us understand bacterial behavior and develop effective strategies to combat infectious diseases caused by these microscopic creatures. This remarkable print from Science Photo Library serves as a reminder of the complex microbial ecosystem that exists within our bodies and its potential impact on our health. It highlights both the beauty and importance of studying these minuscule life forms to further scientific knowledge and improve human well-being.
