Eosinophil white blood cell, TEM C014 / 1438
Eosinophil white blood cell. Transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a section through an eosinophil. Eosinophils, like all white blood cells, are part of the bodys immune system. They are involved in the bodys allergic response and help to defend the body from invading parasites. The cells cytoplasm contains many characteristic granules (blue) that contain enzymes used to destroy invading organisms. Magnification: x5000 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of an eosinophil white blood cell, captured using a transmission electron microscope. Eosinophils are vital components of our immune system, responsible for defending our bodies from invading parasites and participating in allergic responses. The image reveals the unique structure of this specialized cell. The cytoplasm is filled with characteristic granules that appear blue under the microscope. These granules contain powerful enzymes that play a crucial role in destroying any organisms attempting to invade our body. With a magnification level of x5000 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, this photograph allows us to appreciate the complexity and beauty hidden within our own biology. It serves as a reminder of how intricately designed our defense mechanisms are on a cellular level. The white background emphasizes the purity and importance of these cells in maintaining overall health. Each eosinophil stands alone, ready to combat any threat that may arise. As we delve into the realm of immunology and cytology through this image, it becomes evident just how remarkable our immune system truly is. This print not only educates but also inspires awe for the wonders taking place inside each one of us every day – an ongoing battle between invaders and defenders orchestrated by microscopic heroes like these eosinophils.
