Gram positive: dark purple
Gram negative: light pink
You may need to do your gram stain over again. It should be either dark purple or light pink.
RED GRAM means KANDI PAPPU

Neither - the influenza VIRUS is not typed by gram stains - only bacteria are.
E. coli is a gram negative bacteria, meaning that it has a cytoplasmic lipid membrane, a peptidoglycan layer, and a (LPS) lipopolysaccharide layer. As a result, e. coli stains a pink colour on a gram stain from the counterstain saffranin. Gram positives stain purple retain the crystal violet dye even after washed with a decolouring solution.
If you are talking about a Gram Stain, then red. E. coli is Gram negative which means that Safranin will stain it red during a gram stain.
The iodine in the gram stain serves as a mordant or fixative.
e. coli stains Gram negative.
By doing differential stains on an unknown organism, you can learn more about that organism. One of the most helpful stains would be the Gram stain. The gram stain will differentiate from Gram positive and Gram negative cells, narrowing your bacteria down a lot. Other stains include: Acid-Fast stain, Capsule stain, Endospore stain, and PHB stain.
Gram-negative bacteria Gram-negative bacteria have an outer membrane. However, they have a thinner peptidoglycan cell wall. This means they do not hold the blue dye used in Gram testing and do not appear blue. Instead, they appear red or pink in color.
Its the primary stain of the procedure. IT stains the Gram positive organisms
S. mitis stains purple and therefore is a gram positive bacteria
