(b). Typhoid Bacillus.

The characteristic stool oftyphoid fever is a copious watery stool, having a strong odor and an alkalinereaction. This stool is known as the pea-soup stool, and may be tinged withblood and contain many pus-cells. The typhoid bacilli are medium-sized organisms with rounded ends,generally short, but sometimes long or thread-like and frequently showingfaintly stained, sharply defined areas in their protoplasm. They are activelymotile and have both polar and lateral flagella. This organism stains with theordinary dyes and is decolorized by Grams method.
