False Coloured Collection (#97)

Plasma cell, TEM
Plasma cell, coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM). This section has revealed the cells large central nucleus (brown)

Taste buds, light micrograph
Taste buds. Coloured light micrograph of a section through the tongue, showing taste buds (round, purple). The taste buds are within papillae (projections) located on the surface of the tongue

Stomach pylorus glands, light micrograph
Stomach pylorus glands. Light micrograph of a section through glands (pink) in the pylorus region of the stomach. Pyloric glands contain mucus cells and G cells that secrete gastrin

Thyroid follicle structures, TEM
Thyroid follicle structures. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a section through structures in a thyroid follicle

Planktonic diatom alga, SEM
Planktonic diatom alga. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a diatom alga. A diatom is a planktonic unicellular alga that has silica in its cell wall (frustule)

Silicoflagellate, SEM
Silicoflagellate. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the skeleton of a Dictyocha speculum silicoflagellate. Silicoflagellates are single-celled marine algae

Sago cycad leaf, SEM
Sago cycad leaf. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a section through a sago cycad (Cycas revoluta) leaf. At lower centre and left are vascular bundles (orange clusters)

Flowering fern spores, SEM
Flowering fern spores. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of three spores of the flowering fern (Osmunda regalis). The flowering, or royal, fern, is found across much of the world

TEM of E. coli bacterium
False colour transmission electron micrograph (shadow technique) of the bacterium Escherichia coli, a normal inhabitant of the human intestine

False-colour TEM of E. coli bacteria
False-colour transmission electron micrograph of the rod-shaped, Gram-negative bacterium, Escherichia coli. E. coli, as the bacterium is commonly known, is found in the human intestines

Escherichia coli bacteria, SEM
Escherichia coli bacteria, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). E. coli bacteria are a normal part of the intestinal flora in humans and other animals, where they aid digestion

Salmonella typhimurium bacteria, SEM
Salmonella typhimurium bacteria, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). These bacteria, also known as Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium, are Gram-negative

Marine diatom alga, SEM
Diatom alga. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of part of a marine diatom alga. Diatoms form a large part of the marine phytoplankton
