Electron microscopy of Campylobacter jejuni.
Stools from 56 patients with gastroenteritis were cultured for Campylobacter jejuni. The five strains isolated were examined by electron microscopy. The campylobacter cells were pleomorphic and most displayed appearances similar to those of V. fetus. Morphological changes were observed in cultures subjected to prolonged incubation.
