Spirochetes

Twists are a variety of germs, the common denominator of which is its helical image and its ability to move circularly in the fluid medium. Part of it exists only among humans, while others are endemic to humans by chance, only randomly. Part of it can be implanted in the laboratory under anaerobic conditions, while only part of it is in laboratory animals, and there is a part…

Darkfield microscopy explained including darkfield and brightfield microscopes.

Recently, Ms. BugLady had the opportunity to conduct a Darkfield Microscopy training course within the Baltimore-based STD/HIV Prevention Training Center at Johns Hopkins. The course was open to clinicians, laboratory professionals and other health professionals who are responsible for performing darkfield microscopic examinations. The course included an interactive discussion and laboratory practicum on proper microscope set-up; specimen collection; slide preparation; detection and identification of Treponema pallidum spirochetes, the bacterial causative agent of syphilis.The course served as an introductory for new hires and a refresher for current STD/STI clinicians. 

Microscopic exploration is so fascinating! Even after thirty-four (34) years of conducting STD/STI lab training courses, Ms. BugLady still gets excited with the detection of thin, tightly wound, spiral organisms rotating and flexing against the dark background. Thus, a demonstration of characteristic morphology and motility for T. pallidum resulting in a positive diagnosis of syphilis in primary, secondary, or early congenital stages.
