Polarised LM of vitamin D crystals
Vitamin D. Polarised light micrograph of crystals of vitamin D. Vitamin D is fat-soluble, and is found in foods such as animal fats, milk, butter and eggs. Vitamin D is also produced by the body when in sunlight or ultraviolet radiation. The absence of vitamin D leads to rickets. It is also used in the treatment of osteomalacia and dental caries. Vitamin D also has a role in digestion, being necessary for the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the gut. Magnification x35 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of vitamin D crystals under polarised light. Vitamin D, a fat-soluble nutrient, can be found in various foods such as animal fats, milk, butter, and eggs. It is also produced by our bodies when exposed to sunlight or ultraviolet radiation. The significance of vitamin D becomes evident when considering its absence leading to rickets – a condition characterized by weakened bones in children. Moreover, it plays a vital role in treating osteomalacia (softening of bones) and dental caries (tooth decay). Beyond these health implications, vitamin D also contributes to digestion by facilitating the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the gut. This essential function ensures proper bone development and maintenance. Under magnification at 35 times its original size on a 6x7cm scale, this polarised light micrograph reveals the mesmerizing structure of these crystals. The image offers an insight into the chemical composition and biochemistry behind this crucial compound. Science Photo Library brings us yet another stunning glimpse into the microscopic world with this photograph. Its detailed exploration sheds light on subjects like crystallography, chemistry, compounds while emphasizing their relevance within biochemical processes.
