Morphology: N.gonorrohoeae is a gram negative cocci organism. The colonies are usually pinkish brown but after a 48-hour incubation period they turn clear brown. They span anywhere from .6 to 1.0 micrometers in diameter. They are usually seen in pairs as dipplococci with adjacent flattened sides. The organism is found with intercellular in neutrophils of the gonorrhea pustualar extrate.(Bergey's Manual) Frimbriae play a major role in adherence extends several micrometers from the cell surface. When attached the production of an endotoxin begins. The gram-negative shell is composed of proteins, phospholipids, and lipopolysaccarides. The bacterium releases outer membrane fragments during growth. This is a very fragile organism it is susceptible to temperature changes, drying and other changes. Cultures grow best at 35-36 degrees in an atmosphere of 3-10% added carbon dioxide.(N.gonorrahae strains are typed on the ba

sis of their growth requirements). The cultures have to grow in selective medium, these aerobic, non-motile organism releases the IgA protease helps protect them from antibodies. They do not produce spores and they will not live outside of the human host's body.
