Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Illustration of the protozoan, Giardia lamblia
Illustration of the parasite Giardia lamblia, a single-celled protozoan that causes the human intestinal disorder giardiasis (known also as lambliasis). Here, the motile trophozoite stage is seen with its four sets of flagellae; it has two nuclei (at top, purple). Most common in tropical areas, Giardia lamblia is acquired in unhygienic conditions, from contaminated water or food, or by direct contact with a sufferer. Swallowed cysts hatch into this trophozoite stage, which attaches by means of sucking discs to microvilli in the human intestine. The result is abdominal discom- fort, cramps, attacks of diarrhoea, and nausea. Drug treatment may be necessary

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intricate illustration of the protozoan, Giardia lamblia. This single-celled parasite is notorious for causing giardiasis, a distressing intestinal disorder in humans also known as lambliasis. The image captures the motile trophozoite stage of this microscopic organism, revealing its four sets of flagellae that enable movement. Two nuclei can be observed at the top, colored in a striking shade of purple. Giardia lamblia is most commonly found in tropical regions and is typically acquired through unhygienic conditions such as contaminated water or food, or direct contact with an infected individual. Once swallowed cysts hatch into this trophozoite stage, they attach themselves to microvilli in the human intestine using sucking discs. The consequences of infection include abdominal discomfort, cramps, recurring episodes of diarrhea, and nausea. In severe cases, drug treatment may be necessary to alleviate symptoms caused by this parasitic invader. This remarkable artwork not only highlights the scientific aspects but also emphasizes the beauty found within nature's smallest creatures. It serves as a reminder to appreciate and understand even those organisms that can cause harm if proper precautions are not taken.
