Eosinophil white blood cell, TEM C014 / 1437
Eosinophil white blood cell. Transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a section through an eosinophil. Eosinophils, like all white blood cells, are part of the bodys immune system. They are involved in the bodys allergic response and help to defend the body from invading parasites. The cells cytoplasm contains many characteristic granules (yellow) that contain enzymes used to destroy invading organisms. Magnification: x5000 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of an eosinophil white blood cell, captured through a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Eosinophils are vital components of our immune system, playing a crucial role in defending our bodies from invading parasites and participating in allergic responses. The image reveals the unique characteristics of this specialized cell, with its cytoplasm containing numerous distinct granules that house powerful enzymes used to combat foreign organisms. The photograph's high magnification allows us to appreciate the complexity and beauty within this microscopic world. Against a pristine white background, the eosinophil stands out as a solitary defender, symbolizing the resilience and strength of our immune system. Beyond its scientific significance, this image also serves as a reminder of the wonders found within human biology. It highlights how each component works harmoniously to protect us from harm while showcasing the elegance hidden beneath our skin. Photographer Steve Gschmeissner skillfully captures both artistry and science in this remarkable print. Through his lens, we gain insight into cellular structures that often go unnoticed by the naked eye. This mesmerizing piece invites viewers to marvel at nature's intricacies and contemplate their own existence within this vast biological tapestry.
