"Rabies infection in the brain. This micrograph covers just part of the cytoplasm of an infected neuron.Two hallmarks of rabies virus infection are seen - there is minimal damage seen to the structure of infected neurons even though the extent of the infection is dramatic, and large numbers of bullet-shaped virions accumulate as a result of budding upon the endoplasmic reticulum membranes of these cells. Magnification approximately x25,000."
