Staphylococcus aureus MRSA bacteria C014 / 2577
Staphylococcus aureus MRSA bacteria, computer artwork. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA, orange) is a Gram-positive, round (coccus) bacterium, shown here on a filamentous surface. It is resistant to many commonly prescribed antibiotics. S. aureus is carried by around 30 per cent of the population without causing any symptoms. However, in vulnerable people, such as those that have recently had surgery, it can cause wound infections, pneumonia and blood poisoning

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Staphylococcus aureus MRSA bacteria, a formidable pathogen that has become resistant to numerous antibiotics. In this computer artwork, the orange-colored MRSA bacterium is depicted as a round coccus shape, situated on a filamentous surface. The resilience of this Gram-positive bacterium is evident, as it defies the effects of commonly prescribed medications. While approximately 30 percent of individuals carry S. aureus without experiencing any symptoms, vulnerable populations are at risk for severe infections caused by this microbe. Patients who have recently undergone surgery or possess weakened immune systems may fall victim to wound infections, pneumonia, or even life-threatening blood poisoning. The image also highlights the nosocomial nature of these bacteria—hospital-acquired infections that can be particularly challenging to treat due to their resistance mechanisms. The presence of MRSA on metal surfaces further emphasizes its ability to persist in various environments and potentially cause outbreaks within healthcare settings. This photograph serves as a reminder of the ongoing battle against antibiotic-resistant superbugs like MRSA and underscores the importance of continued research and development in microbiology and infectious diseases. It stands as both an artistic representation and scientific documentation capturing the intricate world of pathogens that pose significant threats to human health.
