چکیده
Leifson stain was modified to produce rapid staining of bacterial flagella on untreated microscope slides. The procedure was reliable when tested against a variety of motile and nonmotile bacteria.

A simple, rapid method for demonstrating bacterial flagella.
We developed a simple, rapid method for demonstrating flagellation of bacteria using the fluorescent protein stain NanoOrange (Molecular Probes, Eugene, Oreg.). The NanoOrange reagent binds to hydrophobic regions of proteins, which results in substantial enhancement of fluorescence. Unbound reagent is essentially nonfluorescent. NanoOrange fluorescently stained bacterial cell bodies, as well as...
متن کاملSimplified silver-plating stain for flagella.
Rhodes' silver-plating technique for staining flagella was tested for its reliability and convenience as a routine procedure in the clinical laboratory. Modifications were made in the stain preparation and the procedure of staining and were tested with smears of known motile gram-negative nonfermentative bacilli. The stain has proved to be accurate and reliable and can be easily utilized with a...
متن کاملStaining bacterial flagella easily.
A wet-mount technique for staining bacterial flagella is highly successful when a stable stain and regular slides and cover slips are used. Although not producing a permanent mount, the technique is simple for routine use when the number and arrangement of flagella are critical in identifying species of motile bacteria.
متن کاملMicrowave irradiation for shortening the processing time of samples of flagellated bacteria for scanning electron microscopy.
Microwave irradiation (MWI) has been applied to the development of rapid methods to process biological samples for scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In this paper we propose two simple and quick techniques for processing bacteria (Proteus mirabilis and Vibrio mimicus) for SEM using MWI. In the simplest methodology, the bacteria were placed on a cover-glass, air-dried, and submitted to conduct...
متن کاملThe Morphology of Bacterium tularense.
Divergent views exist concerning the morphology of Bacterium tularense. McCoy and Chapin's (1912) original description depicted an apparently immotile, small, questionably encapsulated, pleomorphic organism occasionally presenting enlarged, irregular, and apparent involution fonns; sometimes with predominant large globular forms. Ohara, Kobayashi, and Kudo (1935) claimed to have demonstrated fl...
