TEM of influenza vaccine of haemagglutinin

Transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of an experimental influenza vaccine comprising haema- gluttinin particles. The particles seen here are derived from the protein coats of many influenza viruses. These protein subunits contain antigens specific to this strain of virus, which alert the body to the presence of infection. Administered to a patient, these antigens may arouse the immune system to produce antibodies to combat any future infection by this virus. Because influenza viruses can change the structure of their haemagglutinin coat, many strains of this virus occur, & vaccines can yet only protect against one or other viral strain.Mag:x200, 000 at 8x10ins, x28, 570 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Transmission Electron Micrograph (TEM) of an experimental influenza vaccine composed of haemagglutinin particles. Derived from the protein coats of numerous influenza viruses, these particles contain antigens specific to this particular strain of the virus. The presence of these antigens alerts the body to potential infection and stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies that can combat future infections caused by this strain. When administered to a patient, this innovative vaccine aims to provoke an immune response capable of effectively neutralizing any future encounters with this specific viral strain. However, due to the ability of influenza viruses to alter their haemagglutinin coat structure, multiple strains exist, rendering vaccines effective against only certain strains. The magnification level at which this TEM image was captured is truly remarkable - x200,000 for an 8x10-inch print or x28,570 for a 35mm size. This visual representation offers a glimpse into the intricate world of bioengineering and genetic manipulation involved in producing such groundbreaking pharmaceuticals. While it's important not to mention any commercial use or specific companies associated with this print from Science Photo Library, its significance lies in highlighting advancements in drug production and manufacturing techniques within the field of biotechnology. Ultimately, through continued research and development efforts like those depicted here, we strive towards more effective vaccines that can combat various strains and protect individuals from influenza outbreaks worldwide.
