Summary Introduction

To determine:

The microscopic appearance of encapsulated Streptococcus if stained with safranin and nigrosine.

Introduction:

When the bacterial cells are in a dormant state, then they form endospores. In dormancy, cells do not undergo metabolism and are said to be in the resting phase. Endospores are formed by bacteria, when they face changed or harsh environment, like, less availability of water, nutrients, and growth temperature.
