Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria, SEM
Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). These Gram-negative rod-shaped bacteria are found in soil and water, and as normal flora in the human intestine. However, they can cause serious wound, lung, skin and urinary tract infections. These types of infections are most common in hospitals. Treatment is with antibiotics. Magnification: x4590 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria, captured through a coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). These Gram-negative rod-shaped bacteria are commonly found in soil and water, as well as residing as normal flora in the human intestine. However, their presence can lead to severe wound, lung, skin, and urinary tract infections. Hospitals often witness these types of infections more frequently. The image highlights the intricate details of these pathogenic microbes with a magnification of x4590 when printed at 10 centimetres wide. The false-coloured SEM reveals the distinct shape and structure of this bacterium that causes havoc within our bodies. Biology and medicine enthusiasts will appreciate this visual representation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa's characteristics under a scanning electron microscope. The photograph serves as an educational tool for microbiologists studying bacterial pathogens or anyone interested in understanding infectious diseases on a cellular level. It is important to note that treatment for such infections involves antibiotics; however, due to its opportunistic nature and resistance capabilities, combating Pseudomonas aeruginosa can be challenging. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into the microscopic world that surrounds us daily. This print not only captures the beauty of biology but also reminds us of the constant battle between humans and harmful microorganisms.
