Yes, the gram stain is very important in microbiology and in the medical field. Gram positive bacteria have a cell wall and respond better to certain types of antibiotics, whereas gram negative bacteria do not have a cell wall (but do have a membrane) and respond better to treatment with other types of antibiotics.
It's a basophilic stain that binds easily to basic structures, so it's easy to see outlines because it dyes the cell membrane, glycocalix, nucleus, protein granules, etc.
Gram negative bacteria (pink gram stain) contain no outer cell membrane, while gram positive bacteria (purple gram stain) do contain an outer cell membrane. Gram negative and positive bacteria can respond differently to antibiotics. Many only work on only one of the two bacteria types. A gram stain is also the first step in identifying a bacteria, dividing bacteria into two large and distinct groups.
Surfectants work in stain removers to remove the stain and not damage what the stain is on. It oxidizes the stain and lifts it out of whatever its in,
To determine which pathogen you are dealing with. Bacteria with a thick peptidoglycan layer stain gram positive (like staphylococcus aureus) while bacteria with a thin layer stain gram negative (like escherichia coli)

The Gram stain
Iodine work as a modrant which helps in fixing the stain properly by making a compled compoun of stain and cell wall.

gram staining is a biochemical method of identifying bacteria in a more specific way.Thus it is important to differentiate gram positive and gram negative bacteria.
Gram negative bacteria (pink gram stain) contain no outer cell membrane, while gram positive bacteria (purple gram stain) do contain an outer cell membrane. Gram negative and positive bacteria can respond differently to antibiotics. Many only work on only one of the two bacteria types. A gram stain is also the first step in identifying a bacteria, dividing bacteria into two large and distinct groups.
The difference between Wright Stain and Giemsa Stain is the intensity of the stain. The Giemsa Stain provides a better stain intensity than the Giemsa stain.
Some diseases are leprosy ( M. leprae), tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), and nocardiosis ( N. brasiliensis, N. asteroides). The acid fast stain is important in identifying bacteria in the genus Mycobacterium and Nocardia.M. tuberculosis
yes you can and the stain can change colors if there is a juice stain for example thats red and a grass stain the stain color could change
a huge stain. a jumbo stain. a large stain.
it is a basic dye that will stain the cells. That makes it a positive stain.
