How can we observe Lactobacilli in buttermilk?

Answer»
  • Smear a drop of fresh buttermilk on a glass slide. 
  • Stain it with methylene blue and put a coverslip over it. 
  • Observe the smear under the 10X objective of a compound microscope and then with the more powerful 60X objective. 
  • The blue rod-shaped organisms moving about are Lactobacilli.
