Cushion : Coloured TEM of rotaviruses
Home Decor from Science Photo Library
Coloured TEM of rotaviruses
False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of rotaviruses. Rotaviruses belong to the genus Reovirus, and are the causative agent of infantile gastroenteritis in humans, mice and calves. The viruses are 70-75 nanometres in diameter, and do not have the lipoprotein envelope seen in many other genera. The genome of this virus is a double-stranded RNA, fragmented into ten segments. The virus gets its name from the wheel-like appearance of the capsid (protein shell). Magnification: x89, 000 at 6x4.5cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a false-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of rotaviruses, providing us with an extraordinary glimpse into the microscopic world. Rotaviruses, belonging to the genus Reovirus, are notorious for causing infantile gastroenteritis in humans, mice, and calves. Measuring a mere 70-75 nanometres in diameter, these viruses lack the lipoprotein envelope commonly found in other genera. Instead, their genome consists of double-stranded RNA fragmented into ten segments. The name "rotavirus" stems from the distinctive wheel-like appearance of its capsid or protein shell. The level of detail captured in this image is truly remarkable. With a magnification of x89,000 at a size of 6x4.5cm, we can appreciate the intricate structure and arrangement of these tiny pathogens. The vibrant colours used to enhance this TEM further emphasize their significance within scientific research. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring visual representation that not only educates but also sparks curiosity about our complex biological world. This particular photograph serves as a valuable resource for scientists studying viral infections and seeking ways to combat them effectively.
