Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, SEM C013 / 4770
Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria (yellow). 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). Magnification: x37, 000 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, revealing their intricate and vibrant nature. Coloured with a striking yellow hue, these Gram-positive coccus-shaped microorganisms are commonly found on the skin and mucous membranes of both humans and animals. While typically harmless, they can cause infections when entering broken skin or blocked sweat or sebaceous glands. Infections caused by S. aureus manifest as painful boils, pustules, and abscesses. Additionally, this bacterium has the ability to induce food poisoning through the production of toxins that trigger vomiting in affected individuals. Moreover, certain strains of S. aureus pose a grave threat by causing toxic shock syndrome (TSS), which can be potentially fatal if left untreated. The magnified image allows us to appreciate the intricacy of these bacteria at an astonishing x37,000 magnification when printed 10 centimetres wide. This visual representation provides valuable insights into their structure for medical professionals studying bacteriology and microbiology. Overall, this photograph serves as a reminder of the diverse world of microorganisms that coexist with us daily—sometimes benign but capable of wreaking havoc under specific circumstances. It highlights both the beauty and potential dangers associated with Staphylococcus aureus bacteria—a testament to the fascinating complexity within our microbial ecosystem.
