Mescaline crystals, SEM
Mescaline. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of crystals of mescaline. Mescaline is an illegal hallucinogenic drug produced from the dried tops, or buttons, of the peyote cactus (Lophophora williamsii). This cactus is found growing wild in Texas and Mexico and was used extensively by both Native Americans and Aztecs in religious ceremonies. It is usually taken by chewing the buttons or making them into an infusion. Mescaline produces feelings of euphoria and an altered perception of time, space and colour

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of mescaline crystals, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The vibrant colors and intricate patterns displayed in this false-colored image are truly awe-inspiring. Mescaline, an illegal hallucinogenic drug derived from the dried tops of the peyote cactus (Lophophora williamsii), has a rich history deeply rooted in Native American and Aztec cultures. This cactus, naturally found in Texas and Mexico, was extensively used by these ancient civilizations during religious ceremonies. The process of consuming mescaline involves either chewing the buttons or creating an infusion to experience its effects. Once ingested, this powerful substance induces euphoria while distorting one's perception of time, space, and color. Through this photograph, we gain insight into the microscopic world of pharmacology. The SEM allows us to explore the intricate details of these mescaline crystals that contribute to their psychoactive properties. It serves as a reminder that even within illicit substances lies remarkable complexity worthy of scientific exploration. Science Photo Library continues to provide invaluable visual resources like this print for educational purposes only; it is important not to mention any commercial use associated with it.
