Typhus is caused by bacteria of the genus Rickettsia, which are classified as gram-negative due to their cell wall structure. Gram-negative bacteria have a thin peptidoglycan layer and an outer membrane containing lipopolysaccharides, which do not retain the crystal violet stain used in the Gram staining procedure. This characteristic is important for identifying the bacteria and understanding their pathogenic mechanisms. Additionally, the outer membrane contributes to their resistance to certain antibiotics and immune responses.
Its a gram negative rod
Gram- negative bacteria turns red to pink after the gram stain is performed.
klebsiella enterobacter citrobacter salmonellaparab
Gram neg cells would remain clear
I think you mean gram negative bacilli. They get their name as those who do not retain crystal violet dye in the gram staining protocol. Many gram negative bacteria are pathenogenic or disease causing. e-coli and salmonella are gram negative bacteria.
they are niether, the term macroglides refers to a class of antibiotic that disrupts protein synthesis in bacteria
the previous answer of gram positive rods is incorrect the correct answer is gram negative rods
bacteria
Sounds like Citrobacter freundii. Double check that you do have a gram negative rod that is motile, H2S negative and oxidative negative (most gram neg rods are).
Yes, the typhus rash may itch, especially if it is murine typhus.
it might be o neg or a,b,o,a neg and posi,b neg and posi
is there a certent place that you get typhus
