LM of human blood smear showing red & white cells
Healthy blood smear. Light micrograph of a smear of human blood consisting of a field of red blood cells (erythrocytes). Near centre is a single white blood cell (leucocyte) with a purple nucleus. Red blood cells are the most numerous type of cell in the blood. They distribute and transport oxygen and carbon dioxide around the body. Their shape is a biconcave disc, and they are flexible enough to pass through the smallest capillaries. Each red blood cell is filled with the red pigment haemoglobin which has a good oxygen carrying capacity. White blood cells serve as part of the immune system, defending the body against disease.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a light micrograph of a healthy human blood smear, revealing the intricate details of red and white blood cells. The image exhibits a field filled with numerous red blood cells, also known as erythrocytes, which play a vital role in distributing oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body. Their unique biconcave disc shape allows them to navigate through even the tiniest capillaries effortlessly. Amidst this sea of red, one solitary white blood cell takes center stage. With its purple nucleus standing out against the backdrop of crimson hues, this leucocyte (or leukocyte) represents an essential component of our immune system. White blood cells act as defenders against diseases that may threaten our well-being. At a magnification level of x630 and captured on 35mm film size, this stunning photograph provides us with an up-close look at these remarkable cellular structures. Stained using Giemsa technique to enhance visibility, it offers valuable insights into human anatomy and physiology. Science Photo Library brings you this awe-inspiring image that seamlessly combines artistry with scientific precision.
