I recently received the following question on cat health from a visitor to my website: My cat has a slight watery discharge from her right eye and it sometimes âcatchesâ dirt as it slides down her nose. I was just wondering if she has an upper respiratory infection and if so, what can I do â¦
The endospore stain is a differential stain used to visualize bacterial endospores. Endospores are formed by a few genera of bacteria, such as Bacillus.By forming spores, bacteria can survive in hostile conditions. Spores are resistant to heat, dessication, chemicals, and radiation.he endospore stain is a differential stain used to visualize bacterial endospores. Endospores are formed by a few genera of bacteria, such as Bacillus.
. Water is used to decolorize. the cells; as the endospores are resistant to staining, the endospores are equally resistant to de-staining and will retain the primary dye while the vegetative cells will lose the stain.The addition of a counterstain or secondary stain (safranin) is used to stain the decolorized vegetative cells.hen vegetative cells are subjected to environmental stresses such as nutrient deprivation they eventually die. However, some bacteria such as the Bacillus spp. and the Clostridium spp can circumvent the problems associated with environmental stress by forming. endospores. .
