EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of Vitreoscilla bacteria, as seen through a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The image reveals a section that encompasses multiple examples of these gliding bacteria, known for their unique lubricating properties. Through false coloring, we can observe the secretions connecting the cells, which play a crucial role in producing this remarkable lubrication. At a magnification of x15,000 when printed at 10 centimeters across, this photograph offers an up-close and detailed view into the cellular structure of Vitreoscilla sp. These microorganisms are not only biologically fascinating but also hold significant importance in various fields such as bacteriology and microbiology. The vibrant colors used to enhance this image highlight the complexity and beauty found within these tiny organisms. It serves as a reminder of how even microscopic life forms can possess extraordinary characteristics that contribute to our understanding of biology on both macro and micro scales. This print from Science Photo Library is not just visually stunning but also holds immense scientific value. It allows us to appreciate the wonders hidden within our natural world while inspiring further exploration into the diverse realm of microbial life.
