Students have asked these similar questions
Methylene blue can be prepared as a basic stain or an acidic stain. How would the pH of the stain affect
the staining of bacteria?
Can dyes other than methylene blue be used for direct staining? Briefly explain.
Why must heat or a surface-active agent be used with application of the primary stain during acid-fast staining?
Both crystal violet and safranin are basic stains and may be used to do simple stains on Gram positive and negative cells. This being the case, explain how they end up staining Gram positive and gram negative cells differently.
