A special case is the identification of filamentous bacteria. These have primarily been identified based on their morphology and simple staining techniques using light microscopy since their first comprehensive description by Eikelboom (Eikelboom, 1975). Several manuals have since been published (e.g. Eikelboom 2000; Jenkins et al., 2004), all of them being based on his original work. However, today it is clear that although some filamentous bacteria can be fairly reliably identified in this way, the majority can not. As described in Chapter 5, we strongly recommend to also apply FISH for the identification of filamentous microorganisms, after having accomplished a preliminary morphological identification using the manuals.
