Photo Mug : TEM of rotavirus particles
Home Decor from Science Photo Library
TEM of rotavirus particles
False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of virions (virus particles) of the rotavirus. Individual virions consist of a protein capsid (orange & green, with a " wheel-like" appearance) surrounding a core of double-stranded RNA. Rotaviruses belong to the Reovirus class, whose members possess icosahedral symmetry, are 65-75 nanometers in size and are non-enveloped. Other members of virus families are surrounded by a lipoprotein envelope that is often derived from the host cells membranes. The rotavirus causes infective diarrhoea, especially in children. Magnification: X 48, 500 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of rotavirus particles, captured through a false-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM). The virions, or virus particles, are depicted in stunning detail with their protein capsid taking on vibrant shades of orange and green. Their unique "wheel-like" appearance adds to the visual allure. At the core of each individual virion lies double-stranded RNA, enveloped by the protective capsid. Rotaviruses belong to the Reovirus class and exhibit icosahedral symmetry. These non-enveloped particles measure between 65-75 nanometers in size. Unlike other members of virus families that possess a lipoprotein envelope derived from host cell membranes, rotaviruses lack this feature. This absence does not diminish their ability to cause infective diarrhea, particularly affecting children. The magnification level used for this image is an astounding X 48,500 at a 35mm size. Such high-resolution imaging allows scientists and researchers to delve deeper into understanding these tiny yet impactful organisms. This TEM photograph serves as a reminder of both the scientific marvels found within nature's smallest creations and the potential harm they can inflict upon us. It stands as a testament to our ongoing efforts in combating diseases caused by viruses like rotavirus while appreciating their intricate beauty under close examination.
