From: Enhanced purification coupled with biophysical analyses shows cross-β structure as a core building block for Streptococcus mutans functional amyloids

Figure 7

Time course of amyloid formation in S. mutans biofilms. Extracellular birefringent rope-like structures were visualized in biofilm material harvested after 60 h of growth as static cultures. Images were captured by bright-field microscopy and under cross-polarizing light filters to visualize Congo Red-induced birefringence at the indicated time points. Scale Bar 50 µm.
