SEM of human lymphocytes & erythrocytes

False-colour scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of human blood, showing a number of spherical, yellow lymphocytes, the smallest type of white blood cells, & two biconcave erythrocytes or red blood cells. The lymphocytes have numerous microvilli projecting from their outer surfaces; the two cells at top centre appear to be in the process of division. Lymphocytes are associated with the production of antibodies as part of the bodys immunological defence system. Erythrocytes are packed with haemoglobin, the pigment involved in transport of oxygen & carbon dioxide around the body. Magnification: x880 at 35mm size

Erythrocyte Immune Lymphocyte Red Blood Cell White Blood Cell Cells


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a false-color scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of human blood, revealing an intricate world within our bodies. The image captures the essence of our immune system by displaying spherical, yellow lymphocytes - the smallest type of white blood cells - alongside two biconcave erythrocytes or red blood cells. The lymphocytes steal the spotlight with their numerous microvilli projecting from their outer surfaces, showcasing their unique structure and function. Interestingly, at the top center of the image, two lymphocytes appear to be in the process of division, highlighting their role in perpetuating our body's defense mechanism. On the other hand, we have erythrocytes that dominate this microscopic landscape. These remarkable cells are packed with haemoglobin - a pigment responsible for transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout our entire body. Their characteristic biconcave shape allows them to efficiently navigate through narrow capillaries and deliver vital gases to every tissue and organ. With a magnification level of x880 at 35mm size, this SEM offers us an awe-inspiring glimpse into the intricacies hidden within us. It serves as a reminder that even on such minuscule scales, there is immense complexity working tirelessly to maintain our health and well-being.
