E. coli bacteria, SEM C014 / 0385
E. coli bacteria. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria (rod-shaped) found in a urine sample from a patient with a urinary tract infection (UTI). The urinary tract is usually sterile, therefore the presence of any micro-organism is termed a UTI. The main cause of UTIs is E. coli. Magnification: x3500 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the microscopic world of Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria, specifically found in a urine sample from a patient suffering from a urinary tract infection (UTI). In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), the rod-shaped E. coli bacteria are vividly highlighted, providing an intricate view into their biology and structure. The presence of any microorganism in the typically sterile urinary tract is considered a UTI, with E. coli being the primary culprit behind such infections. This image serves as a visual representation of the pathogenic nature of these bacteria and their role in causing discomfort and illness. With a magnification level of x3500 when printed at 10 centimetres wide, this photograph allows us to appreciate the intricacies of these microbial organisms that can wreak havoc on our health. The vibrant colours add depth to our understanding of their appearance under high-resolution microscopy. As we delve into this mesmerizing image captured by Steve Gschmeissner from Science Photo Library, it reminds us not only of the abnormality associated with disease but also highlights the importance of microbiology and bacteriology in diagnosing and treating various medical conditions.
