Leptospira colonies.(a) Formation of surface’s black colonies, with round shape, needle tip size (at 30 days of incubation on EMJH agar), wooly margins, and hilly elevation related to Leptospira pathogen species. (b) Formation of sub surface’s white colonies with round shape, small size, and some smaller colonies, size 1–2 mm (after 30 days of incubation on EMJH agar), smooth (entire) margins, flat elevation related to Leptospira perdikensis. (c) Formation of sub surface’s very bright cream colonies with round shape, small size, 1–3 mm, (after 30 days of incubation on EMJH agar), smooth (entire) margins, with small to medium halo, flat elevation related to Leptospira ryugenii. (d) It had the characteristics of a colony (a), except that in this case, rings were seen to the same distance around the surface black colony related to Leptospira pathogen species.

Microscopic observation of Leptospira with a 100× magnification optical microscopeA: Multiplying Leptospira; the image relates to pathogenic Leptospira spp., B: The Leptospira bacterium that is twisted over itself is located on the right. In the lower-left a shorter Leptospira is visible; the image related to Leptospira ryugenii, C and E: Long Leptospira, D: The hook area of the Leptospira bacterium was clearly observed in a microscopic view; the image related to Leptospira perdikensis, F: Two Leptospira bacteria that are interconnected from one end and form a long separable leptospiral chain; the image related to Leptospira sp.
