Bladder infection

Bacterial infection of bladder (cystitis). Colour Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) of the human bladder showing bacterial infection. Rod-shaped Escherichia coli bacteria (yellow) are seen on swollen epithelial cells (blue) of the bladder. The infection has progressed to a haemorrhagic state causing bleeding, with red blood cells seen at left. The epithelial surface has secreted thick mucus filaments (orange). Bladder infection or cystitis is commonly due to E.coli, causing pain in passing urine and inflammation. It affects more women because the urethra is short and easily infected. Magnification: x810 at 6x7cm size. Magnification: x1, 200 at 4x5 inch size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library provides a vivid representation of a bladder infection, specifically a bacterial infection known as cystitis. The image, captured using colour scanning electron microscopy (SEM), showcases the human bladder affected by this condition. The swollen epithelial cells appear in shades of blue, while rod-shaped Escherichia coli bacteria are depicted in yellow. The severity of the infection is evident as it has progressed to a haemorrhagic state, resulting in bleeding within the bladder. Red blood cells can be observed on the left side of the image. Additionally, thick mucus filaments secreted by the epithelial surface are visible in an orange hue. Cystitis or bladder infection commonly occurs due to E. coli bacteria and manifests symptoms such as pain during urination and inflammation. This condition predominantly affects women due to their shorter urethra which makes them more susceptible to infections. With magnifications reaching x810 at 6x7cm size and x1,200 at 4x5 inch size, this microscopic photograph offers viewers an up-close look into pathogenic organisms responsible for urinary infections. It serves as a valuable resource for medical professionals and researchers studying diseases related to the urinary system.
