The Glanders Organism with Reference to Its Cell Inclusions

Abstract
The irregular staining of Malleomyces mallei, mentioned frequently in the literature, is considered to be due in a large part, if not entirely, to the presence within the protoplasm of lipoidal granules which fail to stain readily with the usual aniline dyes. Such granules do, however, stain readily with Sudan black B or with the iodine-fuchsin procedure for staining lipid bodies. They are deposited in cells whether grown on plain agar, tryptose agar, or glycerol glucose agar. Attempts to demonstrate volutin were unsuccessful.
