Influenza virus particles, TEM
Influenza virus particles, coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM). The virus consists of ribonucleic acid (RNA), surrounded by a nucleocapsid (blue) and a lipid envelope (green). In the envelope are two types of protein spike, haemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N), which determine the strain of virus

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate structure of Influenza virus particles. Taken using a transmission electron microscope (TEM), the image reveals the vibrant colors that have been added to highlight various components of the virus. The Influenza virus is composed of ribonucleic acid (RNA) at its core, surrounded by a nucleocapsid in striking blue. This central structure is further enclosed within a lipid envelope, depicted in vivid green. Within this envelope, two types of protein spikes can be seen - haemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N). These spikes play a crucial role in determining the strain of the virus. The black background enhances the visual impact of this microscopic marvel, emphasizing its significance as an infectious pathogen responsible for respiratory illnesses such as avian flu and swine flu. The image serves as a reminder of how these tiny microorganisms can cause widespread outbreaks and pose significant health risks to humans and animals alike. With its detailed portrayal of an enveloped virion, this print not only appeals to those interested in biology or virology but also highlights the beauty found within even the most dangerous pathogens. It stands as a testament to both scientific discovery and artistic representation, offering viewers an opportunity to appreciate nature's complexity on both macroscopic and microscopic scales.
