Description: Image of atmospheric dust collected in Granada taken using scanning electron microscopy (VPSEM Zeiss SUPRA40VP, CIC, UGR), where a bacillus of around 3 μm is observed on a biofilm. Likewise, the presence of filaments that surround the dust particles that make up a polymineral aggregate stands out.
