Thin section transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of Enterovirus-D68 virions
Thin section transmission electron micrograph (TEM) showing numerous, spheroid-shaped Enterovirus-D68 (EV-D68) virions, which are members of the family Picornaviridae. Some of the viral particles appear as if they are “empty”, missing their contents of single-stranded RNA (ssRNA). Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is one of more than 100 non-polio enteroviruses. This virus was first identified in California in 1962. EV-D68 can cause mild to severe respiratory illness.
