TranslationsSpirillumenUK
Spirillum a bacterium having the shape of a spirally twisted or arched rod. Depending on the species, spirilla range in width from 0.6 to 3 microns and in length from 1 to 50 microns. Spirilla do not form spores and are gram-positive. They are motile, owing to the presence of a bundle of flagella at the end of the cell. Some species grow poorly on laboratory nutrient mediums; a number of species have never been isolated in pure culture. Spirilla are saprophytes. They inhabit fresh and salt waters, as well as putrefying stagnant water, liquid manure, and the contents of animal intestines. SpirillumenUK
Spirillum [spi-ril´um] a genus of gram-negative, spiral, and curved bacteria, including one species, S. mi´nus, that is pathogenic for guinea pigs, rats, mice, and monkeys and is the cause of rat-bite fever in humans.
spirillum [spi-ril´um] (L.) 1. a spiral-shaped bacterium.2. a member of the genus Spirillum.Spirillum (spī-ril'ŭm), A genus of large (1.4-1.7 mcm in diameter), rigid, helical, gram-negative bacteria (family Spirillaceae) that are motile by means of bipolar fascicles of flagella. These freshwater organisms are obligately microaerophilic and chemoorganotrophic, possessing a strictly respiratory metabolism; they neither oxidize nor ferment carbohydrates. The type species is Spirillum volutans. [Mod. L. dim. of L. spira, coil, fr. G. speira]
