What is modified in Jensen's modification of Gram stain?
Jensen's modification: This method involves use to methyl violet as primary stain, iodine and potassium iodide in water as mordant, absolute alcohol as decolorizer and neutral red as counterstain

What might cause a Gram variable reaction?
It might cause reaction in staining and cause accident
What is the difference between leishman staining and giemsa staining?
Leishman staining is used for staining blood in microscopy and its purpose is to both identify and differentiate trypanosomas, leucocytes and malaria parasites. Giesma staining is used to stain DNA region, specifically chromosomes in order to locate aberrations like rearrangement and translocations.
What are the reagents and steps min a Gram stain?
The steps in Gram staining are:1. crystal violet added to the smear2. iodine, the mordant (this fixes the violet)3. a decolorizer made of acetone and alcohol4. safranin, the counterstainIf the cell is Gram +, the decolorizer can not remove the violet. If it is Gram -, the decolorizer can remove the violet and the cell can be then colored with the dye, safranin.Bacteria are grouped in 4 groups by Gram stain:Gram-positive, the cell wall retains crystal Violet.Gram-negative, the cell wall does not retain crystal Violet.Graham not reactive, no staining whatsoever.Graham variable, uneven staining.
Why are the steps in gram staining so carefully standardized?
Gram's stain remains one of the most valuable methods we have for identifying isolates accurately and rapidly. Despite our long-standing familiarity with this method, it still warrants careful attention every step of the way--from preparation and QC of reagents to staining and interpretation. I think one of the main reasons would to avoid contamination.

What are the disadvantages of negative staining in microbiology?
It sometimes require additional chemical reagents to produce the desired action.

What is the use of coplin jar?
A Coplin jar is used in laboratory settings to hold and process multiple microscope slides at the same time. It is commonly used for staining procedures, such as the Gram stain, where multiple slides need to be immersed in various staining reagents simultaneously.

How does Triton X 100 effect cells?
Triton-X100 permeabilizes cell membranes, and allows reagents access to both the cytosol and nuclear material. Triton-X100 is often used to stain fixed cells with antibodies, especially for BrdU or DAPI type staining.
Do gram staining divide bacteria into two groups based on difference in the composition of their DNA?
no. it's their cell walls.
What is the name of the paper used to dry slides after gram staining?
Gram staining is used to identify whether a bacterium is gram positive or gram negative. Slides can be dried using filter paper or tissues. The technique is based on the reaction of stain that happens with the membrane of bacteria.

What has the author Thomas Francis McNamara written?
Thomas Francis McNamara has written: 'Iodine and the quantitative gram reaction' -- subject(s): Iodine, Stains and staining (Microscopy)
Is staining a material a physical change?
Staining is a chemical process.
