Discussion
Which of the following may contain fimbriae?
Answer: B
Correct answer: Gram-negative bacteria
Fimbriae are short hair-like appendages used for attachment, and they are characteristic of gram-negative bacteria, where they are anchored in the outer membrane. They are not organs of motility - that is the flagellum - but they are important in colonisation and virulence.
