Escherichia coli (E. coli) is typically arranged as single rods, measuring about 1-2 micrometers in length and 0.5 micrometers in diameter. They can occur in various formations, including pairs or short chains, but the most common arrangement is solitary. Some strains may also form clusters, particularly under certain growth conditions. E. coli is a Gram-negative bacterium, which influences its staining properties and cell wall structure.
