Nasal lining, light micrograph

Nasal lining. Light micrograph of a section through the olfactory epithelium. The olfactory epithelium is thicker than respiratory epithelium and is identified by the presence of large number of underlying unmyelinated nerves. These are the pale purple round structures between the epithelium (red) and ethmoid bone (yellow). Magnification: x40 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of the nasal lining, specifically the olfactory epithelium. The image reveals a section through this specialized tissue, highlighting its distinguishing features and functions. Unlike the respiratory epithelium, the olfactory epithelium appears thicker and is easily identified by an abundance of unmyelinated nerves that lie beneath it. The pale purple round structures visible in this micrograph represent these underlying nerve cells, creating a striking contrast against the red-colored epithelial layer and yellow ethmoid bone. With a magnification of x40 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, every minute detail becomes apparent to truly appreciate the complexity of our nasal anatomy. This photograph captures a healthy nose's normal anatomical structure with precision and clarity. It provides valuable insights into how our sense of smell is facilitated by goblet cells within the olfactory epithelium and their interaction with surrounding nerve fibers. Presented on a white background, this sectioned light micrograph serves as both an educational tool for understanding nasal physiology and an aesthetic piece that highlights nature's intricacy at microscopic levels. Science Photo Library has once again delivered an exceptional visual representation that sparks curiosity about our own bodies' remarkable capabilities without any commercial intentions in mind.
