Coloured SEM of red blood cells (erythrocytes)
Red blood cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph of red blood cells (erythrocytes). These biconcave discs contain the red pigment haemoglobin with which they transport and supply oxygen to the body. However some of the red blood cells are crenated (star-shaped), which may be symptomatic of a blood disorder but more usually is the result of prolonged storage of a blood specimen. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of red blood cells, captured through a coloured scanning electron microscope. The biconcave discs, known as erythrocytes, are responsible for transporting and supplying oxygen to our bodies with the help of the red pigment haemoglobin. However, upon closer inspection, some of these remarkable cells appear crenated or star-shaped. While this abnormal shape may indicate a potential blood disorder in some cases, it is more commonly observed when blood specimens are stored for extended periods. The magnification used to capture this image remains unknown but serves as a reminder of the incredible detail that lies within our own anatomy. The vibrant colors and delicate structures visible in this photograph offer an awe-inspiring glimpse into the microscopic world that sustains us. It serves as a testament to both the complexity and fragility of life itself. Displayed by Science Photo Library, renowned for their exceptional scientific imagery, this print invites viewers to appreciate not only the wonders hidden within our human body but also highlights how science can reveal astonishing beauty even at such minuscule scales.
