Methylene blue a basic stain is generally used to identify the external morphology of bacteria.
The other stain which is used as differential stain and which can also differentiate the baceteia on the basis of their cell wall is gram stain i.e. Crystal voilet and is counter stained with Saffranine

Does penicillin cure footnail fungus?
No. Penicillin is useful for a variety of bacterial infections, but not fungal infections. There are some options for the infection about which you are inquiring. You should ask your physician about treatment options for your condition.
How might the bacterial cell produced in step 6 be useful?
It will cause recombination. (side note: buy BEYONCÉ on itunes)
What is useful for visualizing the glycocalyx of certain bacterial species?
Periodic acid-Schiff's reagent (PAS) - - pink - mucins, glycogen, glycocalyx - magenta By: Wikipedia
What is the purpose of the streptozyme test?
This test is most useful in evaluating suspected poststreptococcal disease following Streptococcus pyogenes infection, such as rheumatic fever.
What is the function of the plasmid?
Plasmids are extra circular genetic material that can be passed from bacteria to bacteria, which basically is their function; in bacterial conjugation. But, in biotechnology it is often used in recombination work. Some other organisms gene is inserted into the bacterial plasmid and then the bacteria multiply and transcribe this inserted gene into many useful products.
Can you use evalon in vaginal infection?
You can. But there should be a background of reduced estrogen. It is useful in bacterial vaginosis ( where you suffer bad odour) and in recurrent urinary tract infections. But consult your doctor to decide on the condition.
Are antibacterial agents useful in viral infections?
No, antibacterials agents are specifically used to fight bacterial infections and do not effect a viral infection in any way.
Does penicillin cure footnail fungus?

Does sinus infection make you tired?
Tonsils will not, in and of themselves, make you tired. After all, tonsils are a source of useful immunologic tissue. However, tonsillitis will usually occur in association with bacterial infection (e.g. strep) and the process of the body needing to combat the infection produces fatigue.
Can anitibiotic be useful for pancreatitis?
Pancreatitis is an inflammation of the pancreas. The name itself doesn't say what the cause is but it may be due to an infection but most are caused by gall stones and heavy alcohol use. Antibiotics should not be used for anything but bacterial infections.
What are symptoms of bacterial vaginosis?
This infection is not a yeast infection (candidiasis) nor trichomoniasis (not a bacteria). Often there is a "fishy" smell and there isn't the normal change seen through the monthly cycle. Douching is the main cause for this disorder. There is no itching or redness. Lab testing can confirm the disease. Antibiotics can be used or probiotics have been found useful.
Are white blood cells useful?
yes extremely useful as they are the cells that defend the body from infection
If you have been to the doctor and he has prescribed penicillin what do you most likely have flu chickenpox mumps sinus infection?
Fly, chickenpox, and mumps are always viral illnesses and cannot be cured with penicillin. Sinus infection is almost always viral, but can occasionally be bacterial. When it is, penicillin is not a useful antibiotic for the typical pathogens that cause sinus infection. I understand this question was probably on a secondary school homework assignment, but it's rather goofy.
How did the white blood cell different confirm that might have appendicitis?
Symptoms and signs are more useful in combination, however, a high WBC with a high Neutrophil count helps to indicate Appendicitis.
Why is propaganda useful?
Propaganda is useful for influencing public opinion, shaping attitudes, and promoting specific beliefs or ideologies. It can be used to mobilize support for a cause, sway individuals' behavior, and control the narrative on a particular topic or issue.
Discuss why it would be fruitless to prescribe penicillin for a viral infection?
Penicillin's mode of action is dependent on the beta-lactam ring. This ring is analogous to the D-ala-D-ala peptide chain on glycan strands in peptidoglycan, the component that makes up the bacterial cell wall. Penicillin inhibits cell wall synthesis; therefore, it has no effect on a viral infection due to the structure of a virus. It is sometimes useful to prescribe antibiotics to prevent secondary infection by bacteria in the event that a viral infection damages the immune system.
Why is it important to determaine the location of the endospore?
Bcause the position of the endospore differs among bacterial species and is useful in identification.
