There are dangerous types of deadly germs that cannot be seen with the naked eye, but when viewed with a microscope, the structure is surprisingly beautiful. They look like patterns or artwork.
German science photographers have used high-tech equipment to capture a series of structural images of some pathogenic bacteria.
This series of images is included in the Science Photo Library in London (UK) for use in research and teaching.
Here are some pictures in that series:
Ebola virus
Smallpox bacteria structure looks like . sushi
Microbial structure of meningitis
Bacterial structure of pneumonia
Ecoli bacteria
Anthrax-shaped anthrax
Bacterial structure of tuberculosis
The structure of polio bacteria
