White Blood Cell Chases Bacteria
Adam Ryman
A very short microscope clip of a neutrophil chasing a Staphylococcus aureus bacterium, originally from David Rogers at Vanderbilt University. It is a widely reposted piece of immune-system footage.
HN shares it as striking classic footage of the immune system at work, sometimes as an analogy for attack and pursuit.
