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]
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]
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.
Bacillus subtilis can divide symmetrically to make two daughter cells (binary fission), or asymmetrically, producing a single endospore that can remain viable for decades and is resistant to unfavourable environmental conditions such as drought, salinity, extreme pH, radiation, and solvents. The endospore is formed at times of nutritional ...
Bacillus subtilis is a rod-shaped, Gram-positive bacteria that is naturally found in soil and vegetation, and is known for its ability to form a small, tough, protective and metabolically dormant endospore. B. subtilis can divide symmetrically to make two daughter cells (binary fission), or asymmetrically, producing a single endospore that is ...
Ferdinandcohnia comprises species originally belonging to the genus Bacillus, whose polyphyletic nature has long been recognized as an issue by the scientific community. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] The vague nature of the criteria used to assign species into Bacillus resulted in a large genus full of unrelated organisms with a diverse range of biochemical ...

Fungal yeast forms are inconsistently stained with Acid-fast stain which is considered a narrow spectrum stain for fungi. [21] In a study on acid-fastness of fungi, [ 22 ] 60% of blastomyces and 47% of histoplasma showed positive cytoplasmic staining of the yeast-like cells, and Cryptococcus or candida did not stain, and very rare staining was ...
