A capsule is closely associated with cells and does not wash off easily, while a slime layer is more diffuse and is easily washed away. Figure 2-50 shows the capsule surrounding Klebsiella planticola. Figure 2.50 Capsule surrounding cells of Klebsiella planticola.
The bacterial capsule is a very large structure of many bacteria. It is a polysaccharide layer that lies outside the cell envelope, and is thus deemed part of the outer envelope of a bacterial cell. It is a well-organized layer, not easily washed off, and it can be the cause of various diseases.
