    I'm working in the bioimaging department of my university and electron microscopes are really fascinating! In the last decades, microscopy techniques have become so sophisticated that individual atoms can now be tracked for quite some time. Last year, scientists even managed to record two atoms bonding for the first time (would love to make a video about this myself in the nearer future). This might not sound revolutionary but just imagine, we slowly become able to really observe processes which have been only theoretically described!

      One of the reasons that this Coronavirus is spreading quickly is that many people show no symptoms and many show no symptoms at first but then get sick. They can spread the virus during that time though. With the flu, you usually feel sick within a shorter time and people are in bed not spreading the virus. So, you’re pointing to something important about this virus.

      @ashwinhalepet7487 4 роки тому +12

      Nothing in the image is a color because they are smaller than the wavelengths of visible light. So the color is assigned mostly arbitrarily. I assume there are general rules like make the virus in a color that stands out but I don't know for sure

    • @geekdiggy
      @geekdiggy 4 роки тому +9

      there's no universal guideline for coloring, it's really done at the discretion of whoever is developing the image. in general, they'll assign contrasting colors, which makes the different features more distinguishable, especially for people with sight problems.

    • @Sinister_Monster
      @Sinister_Monster 4 роки тому +5

      What we perceive as 'colour' is the light of a particular frequency reflecting off of it. So when we see a leaf as green, that means that the leaf absorbed most of the colours in the visible spectrum of light except the frequency of light corresponding to the colour green, which it reflected. Since, SEM's and TEM's use electrons, which have very high frequencies well beyond what humans can see and perceive as 'colour', these images are in greyscale. The colour is then added later to improve comprehension

While you cannot easily get access to an electron microscope to look at stuff like viruses, you can still purchase a relatively inexpensive microscope online. I don't mean cheap school type microscopes, but those that are around $300 and up which have stereo view with two eye holes and magnify up to 2000x. You can see things that will make hairs on your skin stand up and skin crawl. Trust me.

So that means that the half of the 400nm (the lowest point) wavelength for visible light is 200nm, and the concerned virus is ~100nm which is less than 200nm. That's why it is not possible for light microscopes to visualize viruses and that is the correlation between size and wavelength.
