EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the microscopic world of acute haemorrhagic conjunctivitis, a highly contagious eye infection caused by enterovirus particles. The transmission electron micrograph (TEM) reveals a sample of tissue from the infected conjunctiva of a human eye, highlighting the presence of purple-colored enterovirus particles that are responsible for this abnormal condition. The image provides an insight into the intricate biology and histology behind this viral infection. It serves as a powerful reminder of how pathogens can infiltrate our bodies, causing harm and disrupting normal bodily functions. By capturing these virions in such detail using an electron microscope, scientists gain valuable knowledge about their structure and behavior. Acute haemorrhagic conjunctivitis is commonly known as "pink eye" due to its characteristic redness and inflammation of the conjunctiva. This photograph not only offers an up-close view of the infecting microorganisms but also emphasizes the importance of healthcare measures to prevent its spread. AM Images/Science Photo Library has expertly captured this significant moment in virology research, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty and complexity found within our own bodies. Through scientific exploration like this, we continue to advance medical understanding and develop strategies for combating infectious diseases that affect millions worldwide.
