acidic dyes such as eosin, acid fuchsin, and nigrosin
Some suitable negative stains include ammonium molybdate, uranyl acetate, uranyl formate, phosphotungstic acid, osmium tetroxide, osmium ferricyanide[2] and auroglucothionate.
dyes are used for staining and killing microbes
Safranin (red) is used in gram staining and endospore staining as the secondary stain. Nigrosin is used in negative staining, staining only the background and not the bacteria. Therefore, the bacteria within the capsule would stain red from the safranin. (Like in endospore staining and negative gram staining, safranin would stain the bacteria red.) Nigrosin would stain the background of the organism just as it would in negative staining. Bacteria (within capsul): stained safranin red Capsule (outer layer of bacteria): clear Background of organism: stained dark with Nigrosin
Because the cell wall repels the binding of the negative stain therefore the cells do not stain. Because of this the background is stain with the dye used and the bacteria remain colorless. Basically your staining the background, that is, you are not directly staining the cells.
Differential staining is the procedure that are used to distinguish organism based on their staining properties. Use of gram stain divide bacteria into two classes - gram positive which retain crystal violet stain purple colour, gram negative which lose their crystal violet and give pink colour. By this method we can differentiate two different types of bacteria having different cell wall composition that is the reason gram staining used widely as differential staining
Because negative staining requires the use of an acidic stain, which will not penetrate the cells because of the negative charge on the surface of the bacteria. As a result, the unstained cells can be easily identified against the colored background.
Acidic dyes are negatively-charged dyes. Since bacteria are also negatively-charged, they will repel the acidic dyes. So, instead of staining the bacterium itself, it will be the background that will be colorized....

no
Crystal violet, basic fuchsin, and safranin are all dyes which can be used in direct staining because they are cationic which means that they are positively charged. These dyes which are positively charged will react to the bacterial cell wall because the cell wall is negatively charged resulting in a basic stain.

There are several uses for a staining jar. In microscopy, it is used for staining tissues and cells for slides. After being stained with dyes or stains, the specimens can also be placed in the jar to look for certain aspects.

Capsules are made of polysaccharides and/or polypeptides that have no net charge. Most dyes used do have a net charge. Therefore, capsules cannot bind to charged dyes and do not stain as a result. Capsules may be revealed by methods such as Maneval's method. This method utilizes negative staining, where the background is stained revealing an unstained structure of interest: the bacterial capsule.
