Photographic Print : Glial cell, SEM
Photo Prints From Science Photo Library
Glial cell, SEM
Glial cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a cultured glial cell (centre). Glial cells are nervous system cells that provide structural support and protection for neurons (nerve cells). In the human brain, the most concentrated region of glial activity is in the cerebral cortex, where there are about four glia for every neuron

Discover the intricacy of life with Media Storehouse's Photographic Prints. Feast your eyes on this captivating image of a Glial cell, as seen through the lens of Science Photo Library's Scanning Electron Microscope. Glial cells, often referred to as the 'supporting cast' of the nervous system, are essential for providing structural support and protection to neurons. This coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) brings the intricate details of this vital cell to life, making it a truly mesmerising addition to any scientific or educational space.
Photo prints are produced on Kodak professional photo paper resulting in timeless and breath-taking prints which are also ideal for framing. The colors produced are rich and vivid, with accurate blacks and pristine whites, resulting in prints that are truly timeless and magnificent. Whether you're looking to display your prints in your home, office, or gallery, our range of photographic prints are sure to impress. Dimensions refers to the size of the paper in inches.
Our Photo Prints are in a large range of sizes and are printed on Archival Quality Paper for excellent colour reproduction and longevity. They are ideal for framing (our Framed Prints use these) at a reasonable cost. Alternatives include cheaper Poster Prints and higher quality Fine Art Paper, the choice of which is largely dependant on your budget.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a glial cell, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Glial cells are an essential component of the nervous system, providing crucial support and protection to neurons. In this image, we see a cultured glial cell at the center, surrounded by its intricate network of extensions and filaments. The vibrant colors in this SEM image have been added artificially to highlight different structures within the cell. The false coloring helps us appreciate the complexity and beauty of these microscopic entities that play such a vital role in our brain's functioning. Within the human brain, glial activity is most concentrated in the cerebral cortex. It is fascinating to note that there are approximately four times as many glia cells as there are neurons in this region. This emphasizes their significance in maintaining neural health and facilitating efficient communication between nerve cells. By studying glial cells through techniques like SEM, researchers gain valuable insights into neurobiology and neuroscience. These findings contribute to our understanding of various neurological disorders and pave the way for potential therapeutic interventions. This remarkable print from Science Photo Library serves as a reminder of how even at minuscule scales, biological systems can be awe-inspiring works of art.
