Hypothalamus releases corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) ---> Pituitary gland releases adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) ---> ACTH stimulates the adrenal cortex ---> adrenal cortex releases cortisol into the blood stream ---> cortisol affects target cells, and ceases once homeostasis is reached.
A bacteria, which possesses capsule is a capsulated bacteria. The purpose of capsule staining is to observe bacterial capsule by distinguishing capsular material from the bacteria cell. Principle: In capsule staining, a smear of bacteria is made at the center of a slide.
The final and third. step is applying a counter stain. A counter stain is used to stain all unstained biological. materials. Counter stains are usually a contrasting color to the primary stain. With the. Gram stain, the primary stain colors the cells violet and the counter stained bacteria are. red. Violet cells are âGram positiveâ because they have reacted to the stain.
