Fine Art Print : Influenza virus particle, TEM
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Influenza virus particle, TEM
Influenza virus particle, coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM). The virus consists of ribonucleic acid (RNA), surrounded by a nucleocapsid (light green) and a lipid envelope (dark green). In the envelope are two types of protein spike, haemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N), which determine the strain of virus

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of an Influenza virus particle, captured using a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Against a striking black background, the colored image reveals the various components that make up this notorious pathogen. At its core, the virus contains ribonucleic acid (RNA), which is surrounded by a nucleocapsid in light green. The RNA holds the genetic information necessary for viral replication and survival. Surrounding the nucleocapsid is a lipid envelope in dark green, providing protection and facilitating entry into host cells. Within this envelope are two distinct types of protein spikes: haemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N). These spikes play a crucial role in determining the strain of influenza virus. Haemagglutinin allows the virus to attach to host cells, while neuraminidase aids in releasing newly formed viruses from infected cells. The vibrant colors used in this image highlight both the beauty and danger associated with these microscopic organisms. Influenza viruses are highly infectious respiratory pathogens that can cause widespread illness and even death. They are responsible for annual flu outbreaks as well as more severe pandemics such as avian flu or swine flu. This photograph serves as a reminder of our ongoing battle against these microorganisms and highlights their complexity under high magnification. It provides valuable insights into virology, microbiology, and disease prevention efforts worldwide.
