Granulocyte white blood cell, TEM
Granulocyte white blood cell. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a neutrophil granulocyte, a type of white blood cell. Neutrophils, like all white blood cells, are part of the bodys immune system. They are involved in the bodys immune response and help to defend the body from pathogens. Granules within their cytoplasm contain enzymes used to destroy invading organisms. Like all granulocytes, neutrophils have a multi-lobed nucleus (yellow and purple). Magnification: x8570 at 35mm

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a granulocyte white blood cell, specifically a neutrophil granulocyte, in all its intricate detail. Coloured using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), this image provides a mesmerizing glimpse into the inner workings of our body's immune system defender. Neutrophils play an indispensable role in our immune response, tirelessly safeguarding us against harmful pathogens. The granules within their cytoplasm contain powerful enzymes that act as lethal weapons to destroy any invading organisms that threaten our well-being. The multi-lobed nucleus of the neutrophil is beautifully highlighted with shades of yellow and purple, standing out against the black background. This high-resolution magnification at x8570 reveals every minute feature and structure of this remarkable cell. As we marvel at this photograph, it serves as a reminder of the complexity and resilience present within our own bodies. It symbolizes the ceaseless battle fought by these microscopic warriors on behalf of our health and vitality. Whether used for educational purposes or simply admired for its aesthetic appeal, this print from Science Photo Library encapsulates both scientific wonder and artistic beauty. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of cellular biology while recognizing the vital role played by these extraordinary white blood cells in maintaining our overall well-being.
