| Directions | 1. Place a drop of Lactophenol along with 0.05% Cotton blue on a clean and dry slide and place a fungal culture in it.
2. By using a nichrome inoculating wire, carefully tease the fungal culture into a thin preparation. 3. Place a coverslip on the preparation. Wait for about 5 minutes and observe first under microscope under low power for screening in low intensity. Then observe under high power. |

| Intended Use | Lactophenol is used as a staining solution for wet mounting of Fungi. | |||
| Principle And Interpretation | Fungus are eukaryotic organism and they are classified into two main groups that is yeast and molds. Its cell wall is made up of chitin. Fungal cells have both macroscopic as well as microscopic structure. Lactophenol along with Cotton Blue reagent is used for staining as well as for wet mounting of fungi. Wet mount preparation is the most widely used method of staining and observing fungi and is simple to prepare. The preparation has three components: Lactic acid preserves the fungal structure and clears the tissue while phenol acts as a disinfectant and cotton blue imparts blue colouration to the fungal spores and hyphae. | |||
