Jigsaw Puzzle : Hepatitis A virus particles, TEM
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Hepatitis A virus particles, TEM
Hepatitis A virus. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a cluster of Hepatitis A virus particles, the cause of infectious hepatitis. The particles are made of a protein coat encapsulating ribonucleic acid (RNA) genetic material. During Hepatitis A infection, the virus attacks the liver producing liver inflammation, fever and jaundice. Hepatitis A may be transmitted person-to-person via the faecal/oral route. The virus may, on occasions, be transmitted by faecally contaminated food or water. The disease is more prevalent in warm countries with poor standards of hygiene. Magnification: x164, 000 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed print captures the Hepatitis A virus particles in all their microscopic glory. Under the transmission electron microscope, a cluster of these tiny particles can be seen, each one consisting of a protein coat enveloping its RNA genetic material. These minuscule invaders are responsible for causing infectious hepatitis, a disease that targets the liver and leads to inflammation, fever, and jaundice. Hepatitis A is primarily transmitted through person-to-person contact via the faecal/oral route. However, it can also be contracted by consuming food or water contaminated with infected feces. This makes proper hygiene practices crucial in preventing its spread. The prevalence of this disease is higher in warm countries with poor sanitation standards. The magnification level used to capture this image was an astounding x164,000 when printed at 10 centimeters wide. The false coloring technique employed enhances our understanding of the structure and composition of these viral particles. As we delve into the world of microbiology and virology through this photograph from Science Photo Library, we gain insight into the complex nature of pathogens like Hepatitis A virus. It serves as a reminder that even something as seemingly insignificant as a small particle can have profound effects on human health and well-being.
