Description

this is my entry for :iconmertus:'s science contest! mertus.deviantart.com/journal/…
With this piece, made of painted clay I want to show you what for me is the most beautiful part of biochemistry (the degree I'm studying): fluorescence stained cells ^^ for those who don't have any idea of how they look like, I would like you to take a look at them by typing at google images: "fluorescence cells" (for example) www.google.es/search?q=fluores…
The aim of doing this stainings is the study of the structure of some parts of cells by tagging each one with different fluorescent substances which will glow in different colours while they're being lightened by the correct light in the fluorescent microscope. I don't think scientists also had the aim of creating art, but fot me they achieved it.
I hope you like my piece and I hope you like fluorescent cells :)
