Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria
False colour transmission electron micrograph of the rodlike bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa (gram negative). These bacteria are common in the soil, decomposing organic material & water. This species is pathogenic to man, occuring in pus from wounds & in urinary tract infections. They are also associated with infections in severe burn cases. Pseudomonads move by means of flagella (single or multiple), long hairlike threads extending from one end of the body (not visible here). Mag: X8, 800 (at 35mm size)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate world of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. In this false-color transmission electron micrograph, we are granted a glimpse into the rodlike structure of these gram-negative organisms. Commonly found in soil, water, and decomposing organic material, these bacteria play an essential role in nature's cycle. However, their significance extends beyond environmental processes. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is pathogenic to humans and can cause various infections such as urinary tract infections and wounds filled with pus. Particularly concerning is its association with severe burn cases where it poses a significant threat. The image reveals one fascinating aspect of pseudomonads - their ability to move using flagella. These long hairlike threads extend from one end of their bodies but unfortunately remain invisible here. With a magnification level of X8,800 at 35mm size, this transmission electron micrograph offers us an up-close encounter with these tiny yet impactful microbes. It serves as a reminder that even within the unseen realms lies a complex ecosystem that influences our daily lives. Science Photo Library has once again captured the beauty and scientific importance behind microbial life through this stunning photograph print.
