Summary
| Description |
English: This illustration depicts a three-dimensional (3D) computer-generated image of a number of drug-resistant, Neisseria gonorrhoeae diplococcal bacteria. Note that extending from the organisms’ exterior were type IV pili, or hair-like appendages, which in this case, are used to promote motility for these bacteria, and improve surface adherence. The artistic recreation was based upon scanning electron microscopic (SEM) imagery. |
