Why can't you use the gram stain on the pathogens?
Which pathogens can't you use the gram stain on? Some pathogens are gram negative such as Tuberculosis. Others are gram positive. Those you can stain with the gram stain. The differences have to do with the structure of the outer membrane. Not all pathogens are gram negatives. Staph and strep are gram positive. People die from Strep infections.

Can you treat an infected wound without antibiotics?
yep... using nanofibres... researchers had found that wound will be healed if there is no infection on it. i.e., pathogens infects the wound and does not let to heal. They found that gram negative organisms are pathogens which is reason for infections. So, they made the bandage with nanofibres which carries positive charges which will attract the gram negative organisms which carries negative charges on their surface, and protect the wound from the gram negative organisms. This will lead to healing.
