Images 6 to 9. Bacillus halobius ruber. Images 6 and 7 - Changes of the little rods under the influence of water or diluted salt solution, starting conditions: swelling of the little rods at the end or in the middle. Bending, rounding. Enlargement 750/1. Image 8 - Through the influence of water or diluted salt solution strongly altered little rods: swelling to spheres, to which sometimes still unchanged remainders of little rods are clinging; more or less dissolving spheres. Enlargement 750/1. Image 9 - View of a preparation obtained by smearing in pure water. The jelly caused by the dissolution of the little rods has shrunk to a more or less densely net-thready mass, in which there are fine grains or droplets to be found. Enlargement 510/1. Image 10 - Sarcina morrhuae. Enlargement 750/1. Image 11 - Micrococcus morrhuae. Enlargement 750/1.
