Blood cells, SEM
Blood cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of human blood showing a red and white cell ( lymphocyte). Red blood cells (erythrocytes) have a characteristic biconcave-disc shape and are numerous. These large cells contain haemoglobin, a red pigment by which oxygen is transported around the body. They are more numerous than white blood cells, one of which is visible in this sample (blue). White blood cells (leucocytes) are rounded cells with microvilli projections from the cell surface. Leucocytes play an important role in the immune response of the body. Magnification: x8500 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of blood cells, as captured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The image reveals a mesmerizing composition of red and white cells, with a lymphocyte taking center stage. The erythrocytes, or red blood cells, are abundant in number and display their characteristic biconcave-disc shape. These large cells carry haemoglobin, a vivid red pigment responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body. In contrast to their numerous counterparts, we catch a glimpse of one white blood cell amidst the sea of red. Leucocytes, as they are known scientifically, exhibit rounded shapes adorned with microvilli projections on their surface. Their crucial role lies in bolstering our immune response. The level of detail captured in this artwork is truly remarkable; when printed at 10 centimeters wide, it magnifies these tiny structures to an astonishing x8500 times their original size! This digital masterpiece by Steve Gschmeissner from Science Photo offers us an opportunity to marvel at the intricacies that exist within our own bodies
