Escherichia coli bacteria, TEM
Escherichia coli bacteria, coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM). E. coli bacteria are a normal part of the intestinal flora in humans and other animals, where they aid digestion. However, some strains, for instance enterohaemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC)i, can produce a toxin that leads to severe illness or even death. Normal strains can also produce infections in weakened or immunosuppressed people. Magnification: x17.000

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Escherichia coli bacteria, captured using a coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) technique. E. coli bacteria are commonly found in the intestinal flora of humans and other animals, playing a vital role in digestion. However, certain strains like enterohaemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) can be extremely dangerous, producing toxins that can lead to severe illness or even death. Even normal strains of E. coli have the potential to cause infections in individuals with weakened immune systems. The magnification level of this image is an astounding x17,000, allowing us to observe the intricate details of these rod-shaped bacterial organisms. The photograph not only highlights their pathogenic nature but also emphasizes their significance within the field of bacteriology and microbiology. Alfred Pasieka's expertise as a photographer shines through in his ability to capture such microscopic subjects with stunning clarity and precision. This print serves as a reminder of both the beauty and complexity present within our microbial world.
