Macrophage, SEM
Macrophage. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a macrophage white blood cell. Macrophages are cells of the bodys immune system. They are found in the tissues rather than in the circulating blood. The cytoplasmic extensions are used for locomotion within the tissues. Macrophages recognise foreign particles, including bacteria, pollen and dust, and phagocytose (engulf) and digest them. Magnification: x5000 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a macrophage, a vital component of our body's immune system. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a close-up view of a macrophage white blood cell, which is typically found in tissues rather than circulating in the blood. The image reveals the cytoplasmic extensions that enable these remarkable cells to move within tissues and fulfill their crucial role. Macrophages possess an extraordinary ability to recognize foreign particles such as bacteria, pollen, and dust. Once identified, they engulf and digest these intruders through phagocytosis. At a magnification of x5000 when printed at 10 centimetres wide, every detail becomes vividly apparent. The false-coloured presentation enhances our understanding of this biological marvel while adding an artistic touch to its scientific significance. Steve Gschmeissner's expert capture invites us into the fascinating world of immunology and immunity. It reminds us of the tireless defenders working diligently within our bodies to keep us safe from harmful invaders. This print serves as both an educational tool for biology enthusiasts and a visually striking piece that sparks curiosity about the wonders hidden within our own anatomy.
