This appendage ranges from 3-10 nanometers in diameter and can be up to several micrometers long. Fimbriae are used by bacteria to adhere to one another and to adhere to animal cells and some inanimate objects. A bacterium can have as many as 1,000 fimbriae. Fimbriae are only visible with the use of an electron microscope. They may be straight or flexible.
The Role of LPS in the Outer Membrane of Gram-negative Bacteria. The function of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria is to act as a protective permeability barrier. The outer membrane is impermeable to large molecules and hydrophobic compounds from the environment.he relationship of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide) to the bacterial cell surface is illustrated in Figure 1 below. In vivo, Gram-negative bacteria probably release minute amounts of endotoxin while growing.
