Fungi - Morphology, Reproduction, Physiology and Importance in Simple Words

By Momina Shehzadi | BS Zoology Graduate, Pakistan In this article, we will learn Fungi - Morphology, Reproduction, Physiology and Importance - in simple words with diagram. This topic is very important for BS Zoology and Microbiology students. Fungi are found everywhere around us. They are present in soil, in water, in air, on dead plants, on dead animals, on our food, on our skin and even inside our body. When bread becomes old, green or black spots appear on it. These spots are fungi. When we see mushroom growing after rain, that is also a fungus. When yeast is used to make bread soft, that is also a fungus. Fungi are very different from bacteria and plants. They are eukaryotic organisms. It means their cells have a true nucleus and other membrane bound organelles. They do not have chlorophyll, so they cannot make their own food like plants. They get their food from other living or dead things. That is why they are called heterotrophic organisms. The study of fungi is called mycolog...

Capsule Staining - Principle, Procedure and Importance | Anthony Method

By Momina Shehzadi | BS Zoology Graduate, Pakistan In this article, we will learn Capsule Staining - Principle, Procedure and Importance - in simple words with diagram. This topic is very important for BS Zoology and Microbiology students. Capsule staining is a special staining technique used to visualize capsule of bacteria. Capsule is outermost thick layer present outside cell wall in some bacteria. It is made of polysaccharides and sometimes polypeptides. Capsule is not stained by ordinary staining methods like simple staining or Gram staining because capsular material is non ionic and acidic stains do not penetrate it. So capsule appears as clear halo around bacteria in Gram staining. To visualize capsule, special staining techniques are required which stain background and bacterial cell but leave capsule unstained, so capsule appears as clear zone around stained cell. Capsule staining is very important because capsule is virulence factor of many pathogenic bacteria and helps in id...
