A capsule is a structure composed of two or more carpel s that in most cases is Dehiscence botany dehiscent , i.e. at maturity, it splits apart dehisces to release the seed s within. A few capsules are indehiscent, for example those of Adansonia digitata , Alphitonia , and Merciera . In some capsules, the split occurs between carpels, and in others each carpel splits open. In yet others, seeds are released through openings or pores that form in the capsule. If it is the upper part of the capsule that dehisces, the capsule is also called a pyxis . For example, in the Brazil nut , a lid on the capsule opens, but is too small to release the dozen or so seeds the actual Brazil nut of commerce within. These germinate inside the capsule after it falls to the ground. Capsules are sometimes mislabeled as nut fruit nuts , as in the example of the Brazil nut or the Aesculus Horse chestnut . A capsule is not a nut because it releases its seeds and it splits apart. Nuts on the other hand do not release seeds as they are a compound ovary plants ovary containing both a single seed and the fruit. Nuts also do not split.

The cell capsule is a very large structure of some prokaryotic cell s, such as bacterial cells. It is a layer that lies outside the cell wall of bacterium bacteria . It is a well organized layer, not easily washed off, and it can be the cause of various diseases. Composition It is usually composed of polysaccharides , ref DorlandsDict two 000016823 bacterial capsule ref but could be composed of other materials e.g., polypeptide in B. anthracis . Because most capsules are water soluble, they are difficult to stain using standard stains because most stains do not adhere to the capsule. For examination under the microscope, the bacteria and their background are stained darker than the capsule, which doesn t stain. When viewed, bacterial cells as well as the surface they are on, are stained dark, while the capsule remains pale or colorless and appears as a ring around the cell. Function The capsule is considered a virulence factor because it enhances the ability of bacteria to cause disease i.e. prevents phagocytosis .
