Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, TEM C016 / 9457
Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a Staphylococcus aureus bacterium (blue) in skin tissue. S. aureus is a Gram-positive coccus (round) bacteria that is found on the skin and mucous membranes of humans and many animals. The bacteria are usually harmless, but infections can occur on broken skin or within a blocked sweat or sebaceous gland, resulting in boils, pustules and abscesses. S. aureus can also cause food poisoning, producing toxins that induce vomiting. Certain strains cause the potentially fatal toxic shock syndrome (TSS)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, a Gram-positive coccus that can be found on both human and animal skin and mucous membranes. In this coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM), we observe a single S. aureus bacterium in skin tissue, depicted as a striking shade of blue. While these bacteria are typically harmless, they can cause infections when they enter broken skin or block sweat or sebaceous glands. The consequences range from painful boils and pustules to abscesses. Additionally, certain strains of S. aureus produce toxins that induce vomiting, leading to food poisoning. This versatile pathogen is also responsible for the potentially fatal toxic shock syndrome (TSS). The intricate details captured by the transmission electron microscope highlight the complexity of this microorganism's structure as it interacts with epithelial cells in our bodies. The TEM allows us to delve into the world of microbiology and gain valuable insights into how these bacteria function at a cellular level. This image serves as a reminder of the diverse array of microorganisms that coexist with us every day, some benign while others pose potential threats to our health. Through scientific exploration and understanding, we continue to uncover new ways to combat infectious diseases caused by organisms like Staphylococcus aureus.
