Transmission Election Microscopy (TEM) image of Cellvibrio japonicus from a Hitachi HT7800 set to 100kV and stained with NanoW. The scalebar depicts 1µm. The polysaccharide diagrams shown are examples of substrates that the bacterium is adept at degrading. C. japonicus possesses an impressive array of carbohydrate active enzymes to cleave the glycosidic bonds of many plant, animal, and fungal polysaccharides.
