Metal Print : Resistant Streptococcus pyogenes strain
Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Resistant Streptococcus pyogenes strain
Resistant Streptococcus strain. Coloured transmission electron micrograph of a dividing Streptococcus pyogenes group A bacterium. This is the resistant strain implicated in the outbreak of necrotic fascitis in the UK which caused about a dozen fatalities. S. pyogenes is usually found in the nose and throat of healthy adults and is the most frequent cause of throat infections. The onset of necrotic fascitis is very rapid and may lead to death in a matter of hours. Large areas of fibrous connective tissue become necrotic with a gangrenous appearance and the infection is not stopped by common antibacterial drugs. Magnification: x44, 000 at 6x4.5cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a coloured transmission electron micrograph of a dividing Streptococcus pyogenes group A bacterium, specifically the resistant strain responsible for the devastating outbreak of necrotic fasciitis in the UK. This particular strain caused numerous fatalities, highlighting its dangerous nature. Normally found in the nose and throat of healthy adults, S. pyogenes is commonly associated with throat infections. The onset of necrotic fasciitis caused by this killer bacterium is alarmingly rapid, often leading to death within hours. The infection manifests as large areas of fibrous connective tissue becoming necrotic, resulting in a gangrenous appearance. What makes matters worse is that common antibacterial drugs are ineffective against this resilient strain. At a magnification level of x44,000 on a 6x4.5cm size print, this image provides an up-close look at these microscopic organisms that have such significant implications for human health. It serves as a reminder of the importance of understanding and combating bacterial pathogens like S. pyogenes. This remarkable photograph belongs to Science Photo Library's collection and offers valuable insights into the field of bacteriology and microbiology. Its portrayal captures both the beauty and danger inherent in these tiny but formidable microbes that can wreak havoc on our bodies if left unchecked.
