Hi:

It is definitely belonged to Bacillus spp.

Please find attached a guidebook for identification of Bacillus spp., I think it will be helpful.

It could be Bacillus subtilis.

It is Bacillus sp.

It is definitely Bacillus species , may be subtilis or polymyxa.

It is Bacillus species (cereus or subtilis).

You can't determine a microorganism species by visual analysis, you need to sequence their rRNA 16S for phylogenetical anaylis.

Bacillus sp. like subtilis, anthracis, cereus

If a bacteria could be identified upto species level (as many of the people (answering this question  has done) then all the elaboarte procedure right upto 16rDNA  sequencing and homology analysis of the sequence would become redundant.

Thanks everyone for clearing my confusion.

I want to make 16 s typing for few of my strains for species identification.

Please suggest me some reliable companies in India or abroad for typing.

Thank you all

Nuzhath.

In India you may send your culture to NCIM at NCL, Pune or NCCS at Pune. The address you will find on the internet. Abroad the best source for this is to send it to ATCC, Japanese Culture collection or in UK. 

Alternatively consider a cheaper method such as MALDI-ToF analysis

For molecular identification of microorganisms. Write to [email protected]

Specific identification from a photomicrograph is not possible but it certainly does not appear  to be a Bacillus spp.  Not an endospore in sight.  More likely a Sreptomycete or Actinomycete.

Dear student.

It is tough for identification,but upto Class level you may go before molecular characterisation that is also may be a good work being a beginner and if the organism is a new one. you collect soil bacteria following method available in any book of soil microbiology.then proceed for colouring like with Gram stain etc. so  it can be clear to you and go for suitable media develop for multiplication of bacteria. then automatically you will get idea about the organism. then go for literature with the other bacteria etc. and compare your figure. Last go for mol characterisation for confirmation etc. You can send me the photograph to get the idea. Plz study with patience then you can something..........

or just send the isolate to a company like Accugenix.  http://www.criver.com/products-services/rapid-micro/accugenix

If you isolated on nutrient agar or BHI agar,it could be on species of Bacillus.If you isolated on starch nitrate agar,it could be Streptomyces.You have to make API profile or Vitek 2 and you will confirm this bacterium within 24hours only.

Posssibly not Bacillus. It could be Streptomyces. You should incubate in 25 degree C to see if sporulation is there - if it is spore-bearer it could be Bacillus subtilis or Bacillus megaterium.
