Cryptococcus neoformans有多小?

Cryptococcus neoformans直径约 8 µm。

测量内容:encapsulated yeast, cell diameter

Cryptococcus neoformans(8 µm)与a red blood cell(7.5 µm)和a cloud droplet(20 µm)按真实比例并排绘制
按比例绘制,从左到右依次是:Red blood cell (7.5 µm)、Cryptococcus neoformans (8 µm)和Cloud droplet (20 µm)。

比较

它实际有多大?

  • About the same width as a red blood cell
  • About 2 would fit across a cloud droplet
  • About 8 would fit across a human hair
  • About 4× the length of an E. coli bacterium
  • About 80× as wide as a flu virus
