EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by the talented Steve Gschmeissner from Science Photo Library, showcases the intricate beauty of the nasal mucosa. The image provides a close-up view of a section through this vital tissue that lines the airways of our nose. In this mesmerizing light micrograph, we can observe various components in vibrant colors against a pristine white background. The purple hue represents the epithelium, which forms a protective barrier for our nasal passages. Meanwhile, orange highlights indicate Bowmans glands responsible for secreting mucus to keep our airways moist and defend against foreign particles. One cannot overlook the delicate pink nerve cells scattered throughout this microscopic landscape, reminding us of their crucial role in transmitting sensory information related to smell. With an impressive magnification factor of x200 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, this print allows us to appreciate the remarkable details within our own bodies that often go unnoticed. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an educational tool within medical and scientific communities. Whether you are fascinated by medicine or simply intrigued by scientific imaging, this stunning photograph is sure to captivate your imagination and deepen your understanding of nasal mucus's significance in maintaining respiratory health.
