BioImage of the Week #2
The BioImage for this week comes to us from GPMatthews’ personal website. The site contains a large collection of fascinating images and articles, particularly on the pages that contain images of diatoms. These unicellular organisms are like biology’s snowflakes and often offer some of the most interesting and complex patterns that can be visualized under a microscope. This image was taken using dark field microscopy techniques and depicts an Actinoptychus diatom. Amazing.
BioImage of the Week is a weekly feature of the biological community’s most impressive imaging examples. Examples are taken from all fields of biological imaging including, but not limited to, confocal microscopy, epifluorescence, atomic force microscopy, phase and differential interference contrast microscopy, and others.
