Hypothalamus releases corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) ---> Pituitary gland releases adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) ---> ACTH stimulates the adrenal cortex ---> adrenal cortex releases cortisol into the blood stream ---> cortisol affects target cells, and ceases once homeostasis is reached.
A bacteria, which possesses capsule is a capsulated bacteria. The purpose of capsule staining is to observe bacterial capsule by distinguishing capsular material from the bacteria cell. Principle: In capsule staining, a smear of bacteria is made at the center of a slide.
The capsule stain employs an acidic stain and a basic stain to detect capsule production. Principle of Capsule Staining Capsules stain very poorly with reagents used in simple staining and a capsule stain can be, depending on the method, a misnomer because the capsule may or may not be stained.
