Blood clot, SEM P260 / 0123
Blood clot. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a blood clot. The red blood cells (erythrocytes) are trapped in filaments of fibrin protein (pink). Blood clotting is the solidification of blood that occurs when blood vessels are damaged. This damage activates blood cells called platelets (not seen), which in turn help to stimulate the formation of fibrin filaments at the site of injury. These filaments enmesh platelets, and red and white blood cells, contracting around them to form a solid clot. Inappropriate clotting is a major cause of strokes and heart attacks. Magnification: x4700 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a blood clot, captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals the complex network formed by fibrin protein filaments (pink), which entrap red blood cells (erythrocytes) within their strands. Blood clotting is a natural process that occurs when our blood vessels suffer damage. In response to this injury, platelets, not visible in the image, are activated and aid in stimulating the formation of fibrin filaments at the site of trauma. These delicate filaments intertwine with platelets and both red and white blood cells, contracting around them to create a solid clot. However, inappropriate or excessive clotting can have severe consequences such as strokes and heart attacks. Magnified 4700 times and printed at 10 centimeters wide, this colored SEM photograph offers an up-close look into one of our body's essential defense mechanisms. Its vibrant hues highlight the biological beauty found within our own physiology. This visually striking image serves as a reminder of how microscopic wonders can hold immense significance in understanding human health. It invites us to appreciate the complexity hidden beneath our skin while emphasizing the importance of maintaining proper balance in our circulatory system for optimal well-being.
