Schistosome fluke, SEM
Schistosome fluke. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a schistosome (Schistosoma sp.) fluke worm, a cause of schistosomiasis in humans. This parasitic trematode (flatworm) lives in the veins around the large intestine, anchoring itself to the wall of the blood vessel with several suckers (one seen at centre), and feeding on its hosts blood. The worms cause fever and abdominal pain, and the eggs produced by the female worm can form obstructions of tissues known as granulomas

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of a Schistosome fluke, captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). These colored SEM images provide an astonishing glimpse into the life of this parasitic trematode, which is responsible for causing schistosomiasis in humans. The image reveals the adult worm's head and mouth, displaying its remarkable anatomy. The fluke worm resides within the veins surrounding the large intestine, firmly attaching itself to blood vessel walls using multiple suckers. It sustains its existence by feeding on its host's blood. Schistosomes inflict various symptoms upon their human hosts, including fever and abdominal pain. Additionally, eggs produced by female worms can lead to tissue obstructions called granulomas. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the devastating impact these creatures have on human health. With vibrant colors highlighting every detail, this SEM image not only provides valuable insights into biology and zoology but also serves as a diagnostic tool for identifying these disease-causing parasites. Its scientific significance lies in aiding researchers studying genetics and pathogenesis related to schistosomiasis. Through this visually stunning portrayal of nature's intricacies, we gain a deeper understanding of how such small organisms can have profound effects on our well-being.
