How the files were prepared

Optimized for the web. Not altered for meaning.

Cellwear converted source files to WebP, stripped metadata, and resized them for faster page loading. No labels, structures, or scientific interpretation were added. Creative Commons adaptations retain their original license, including ShareAlike where required. Product mockups are separate concept assets identified as microscopy-inspired art rather than medical imagery.
