Blood clot, SEM C016 / 9744
Blood clot, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are trapped within a fibrin protein mesh (beige). The fibrin mesh is formed in response to chemicals secreted by platelets (pink), fragments of white blood cells. Clots are formed in response to cardiovascular disease or injuries to blood vessels

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Blood Clot" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate world of human biology. Taken using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), the image showcases the complex nature of blood clot formation. Against a striking black background, we see red blood cells (erythrocytes) ensnared within a delicate fibrin protein mesh in beige. This mesh is created as a response to chemicals secreted by platelets, represented here in pink hues. These platelets are fragments of white blood cells, which play an essential role in our immune system. The clumping together of these components forms what we commonly refer to as blood clots. Such formations occur either due to cardiovascular disease or injuries sustained by our blood vessels. Understanding this process is crucial for diagnosing and treating conditions like thrombosis, where excessive clotting can lead to serious health complications. SUSUMU NISHINAGA's skillful capture allows us to appreciate the beauty hidden within our own bodies while shedding light on vital biological processes that safeguard our well-being. It serves as a reminder that even at microscopic levels, there is immense complexity and wonder waiting to be explored within every inch of our being.
