Histochemical observations on Mycoplasma after staining with acridine orange.
Mycoplasma colonies and Mycoplasma cells in preparations from infected milk and lymph nodes were observed for their fluorescent qualities after treatment with acridine orange. Mycoplasma colonies fluoresced brilliant red or red-orange. When treated after exposure to ribonuclease, the colonies fluoresced lime-green. There was no fluorescence when both ribonucleic acid and deoxyribonucleic acid w...

متن کاملVital staining of Mycoplasma and L-forms with Chlorazol Black E.
Vital staining of Mycoplasma colonies was attempted because other dye visualization techniques kill the organisms and preclude reisolation for further studies. The lipophilic amphoteric dye Chlorazol Black E (CBE) was the most successful of 14 vital dyes tested on Mycoplasma hominis, M. pharyngis, M. fermentans, M. arthritidis, M. salivarium, M. pneumoniae, and L-forms of Staphylococcus aureus ...
متن کاملCombination of immunofluorescence and immunoperoxidase techniques for serotyping mixtures of Mycoplasma species.
We describe a method for the simultaneous identification of up to three Mycoplasma species by the use of contrast-labeled fluorescent antibodies against two species and peroxidase-labeled antibody against a third species. The procedure enabled the rapid identification of colonies of three artificially mixed avian Mycoplasma species on agar blocks and also mixtures of species in cultures from na...
