Chlamydia pneumoniae bacterium
Chlamydia pneumoniae. Coloured transmission electron micrograph of a sectioned Chlamydia pneumoniae bacteria. This Gram-negative bacterium is pear-shaped, with a double cell wall (purple) and dark-staining cell contents. Chlamydia are intermediate in size between bacteria and viruses. They are obligate parasites living only inside cells. Chlamydia pneumoniae is known as the TWAR (Taiwan acute respiratory) strain. It was first isolated from the eye of a Taiwanese child. It causes pneumonia, bronchitis, sinusitis, a flu-like illness, and apparently is associated with heart attack. Treatment with antibiotics. Magnification: x58, 000 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Chlamydia pneumoniae bacterium, a Gram-negative organism that is responsible for causing various respiratory illnesses. The image, captured using transmission electron microscopy, reveals a sectioned view of the pear-shaped bacterium with its distinct double cell wall colored in purple and dark-staining cell contents. Chlamydia pneumoniae falls between bacteria and viruses in terms of size and is classified as an obligate parasite since it can only survive inside host cells. Initially isolated from the eye of a Taiwanese child, this strain is commonly referred to as TWAR (Taiwan acute respiratory). It has been linked to conditions such as pneumonia, bronchitis, sinusitis, flu-like symptoms, and even heart attacks. The importance of antibiotics in treating infections caused by Chlamydia pneumoniae cannot be overstated. This image serves as a reminder of the microscopic world teeming with pathogens that pose risks to our health. By understanding these microorganisms at their core level through advanced techniques like transmission electron microscopy, scientists gain valuable insights into their structure and behavior. Displayed at 6x7cm size with an impressive magnification of x58,000, this photograph from Science Photo Library provides us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into the intricate world of microbiology. It highlights both the beauty and danger present within these tiny organisms while emphasizing the need for ongoing research to combat infectious diseases effectively.
