Light micrograph of a section through a lymph node. The fibrous capsule (pink) enclosing the lymph node is seen across top. Lymph nodes are part of the body's immune system.

These contain white blood cells called B lymphocytes. When a pathogen is detected it is presented to these cells, which then 4100 when printed at 15cm wide.
