More information:

Human red blood cells by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Fresh blood was dispersed in an isotonic glutaraldehyde fixative and the cells were captured on a Nuclepore filter, dehydrated, and prepared for SEM. Red blood cells transport oxygen into the tissues and they transport carbon dioxide out through their iron-containing substance called haemoglobin. Enhanced SEM. Image width: 32 micrometers; magnification: 3125x if the image is printed 10cm wide.
