3D digitally generated image of a number of drug-resistant, Neisseria gonorrhoeae diplococcus bacteria. Note that extending from the organisms exterior are type IV pili, or hair-like appendages, which in this case, are used to promote motility for these bacteria, and improve surface adherence. This artistic recreation is based upon scanning electron microscopic imagery.
