  2. Endospore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endospore

    An endospore stain of the cell Bacillus subtilis showing endospores as green and the vegetative cell as red Phase-bright endospores of Paenibacillus alvei imaged with phase-contrast microscopy. An endospore is a dormant, tough, and non-reproductive structure produced by some bacteria in the phylum Bacillota.

  3. Sporulation in Bacillus subtilis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sporulation_in_Bacillus...

    B. subtilis can divide symmetrically to make two daughter cells (binary fission), or asymmetrically, producing a single endospore that is resistant to environmental factors such as heat, desiccation, radiation and chemical insult which can persist in the environment for long periods of time. The endospore is formed at times of nutritional ...

  4. Bacillus subtilis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacillus_subtilis

    Until 2008, Bacillus globigii was thought to be B. subtilis but is since formally recognized as Bacillus atrophaeus. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Bacillus subtilis ( / b ə ˈ s ɪ l . ə s s u b ˈ t iː . l i s / ), [ 3 ] [ 4 ] known also as the hay bacillus or grass bacillus , is a gram-positive , catalase -positive bacterium , found in soil and the ...

  5. Endospore staining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endospore_staining

    Endospore stain on Bacillus subtilis.The spore is stained green and the vegetative cell is stained a pinkish red color. Endospore staining is a technique used in bacteriology to identify the presence of endospores in a bacterial sample. [1]

  6. Bacillaceae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacillaceae

    The Bacillaceae are a family of gram-positive, heterotrophic, rod-shaped bacteria that may produce endospores. [1] Motile members of this family are characterized by peritrichous flagella. Some Bacillaceae are aerobic, while others are facultative or strict anaerobes. Most are not pathogenic, but Bacillus species are known to cause disease in ...

  7. Bacillus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacillus

    Bacillus subtilis (). The cell wall of Bacillus is a structure on the outside of the cell that forms the second barrier between the bacterium and the environment, and at the same time maintains the rod shape and withstands the pressure generated by the cell's turgor.

  9. Schaeffer–Fulton stain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schaeffer–Fulton_stain

    A stained preparation of Bacillus subtilis showing endospores as green and the vegetative cell as red. The Schaeffer–Fulton stain is a technique designed to isolate endospores by staining any present endospores green, and any other bacterial bodies red. [1]
