Methylene blue can be prepared as a basic stain or an acidic stain. How would the pH affect the staining of bacteria?
# The pH will determine if the bacteria will have a particular charge. If the chromophore is a positive ion like the methylene blue in the equation shown in the reading, the stain is considered a basic stain; if it is a negative ion, it is an acidic stain. Most bacteria are stained when a basic stain permeates the cell wall and adheres by weak ionic bonds to the negative charges of the bacterial cell.
Difference between basic and acidic stains?
Acidic oxides form acids with water: eg SO2 + H2O --> H2SO3 Basic oxides form basic salts (alkaline) with water: eg. CaO + H2O --> Ca(OH)2 Amfotheric oxides have both acidic and base properties: eg. Aluminium oxide is an amphoteric oxide, which means that it displays both acidic (1) and base (2) properties: 1. Al2O3 + H2O --> 2 Al(OH)2- + 2 H+ 2. Al2O3 + H2O --> 2 Al3+ + 3 OH-
