Influenza and Influenza related micrographs
Colorized transmission electron micrograph of Avian influenza A H5N1 viruses (seen in gold) grown in MDCK cells (seen in green).
Avian influenza A viruses do not usually infect humans; however, several instances of human infections and outbreaks have been reported since 1997. When such infections occur, public health authorities monitor these situations closely.
Under a plate magnification of 37,800X, this transmission electron micrograph (TEM) depicted the A/New Jersey/76 (Hsw1N1) virus, while in the virus’ first developmental passage through a chicken egg.
This negative stained transmission electron micrograph (TEM) shows recreated 1918 influenza virions that were collected from supernatants of 1918-infected Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells cultures 18 hours after infection.
This colorized negative stained transmission electron micrograph (TEM) depicted some of the ultrastructural morphology of the A/CA/4/09 swine flu virus.
This colorized transmission electron micrograph (TEM) revealed the presence of a number of Novel H1N1 virus virions in this tissue culture sample.
This digitally-colorized negative-stained transmission electron micograph (TEM) depicted a number of influenza A virions.
Note the histopathologic changes in a case of coccidioidomycosis of the lung showing a large fibrocaseous nodule.
This disease is caused by inhaling arthrospores of the dimorphic fungus C. immitis. 40 percent of newly infected persons develop an influenza-like syndrome with fever, chest pain, cough, malaise, chills, night sweats, arthralgias, and a skin rash.
