Concept explainers
To describe:
The meningitis causing microorganism.
Introduction:
Staining technique is used for staining gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. There are various stains available like
To describe:
The confirmation of presumptive diagnosis.
Introduction:
Diagnosis and laboratory testing is a procedure which includes the growth and culturing of bacteria on culture plates. Enzymatic assays are performed which are characteristic properties of specific strains of bacteria. Staining is done to confirm species of bacteria as different stains are used for identification. They stain the outer polysaccharides present in the membrane of bacteria.
