Image of the Month: Doubling Up

Micrasterias denticulata is a green alga found in acidic-to-neutral fresh waters and sphagnum bogs. This confocal Raman micrograph shows the unicellular organism undergoing cell division; the cell wall is shown in blue, starch in red, and proteins, pectins and fats in green and yellow. The entire image width is a mere 160 μm.

About the Author
Matt Hallam

I've always wanted a job that fosters creativity - even when I worked on the assembly line in a fish factory. Outside work, I satisfy this need by writing questionable fiction. The venture into science writing was an unexpected departure from this fiction, but I'm truly grateful for the opportunity to combine my creative side with my scientific mind as Editor of The Analytical Scientist.
