I this might be your problem. Hard water deposits can accumulate on the sides of the toilet bowl. Then if you clean the toilet using something like Vanish, which turns the water blue, it can cling to the mineral build-up on the bowl. Kohler does not recommend using Vanish. To get rid of these stains, you can try some muriatic acid (diluted of course.) You only need about a 10% solution. Be very careful so you don't burn your skin or eyes if it splashes; wear rubber gloves and eye protection. The brush you use with the muriatic acid should not have any metal that can come in contact with the acid in the toilet. There are brushes available that do not use heavy wire to hold the bristles. A good cleaner is Zep available from Home Depot. This is a good alternative to the muriatic acid.

How do you get blue Windex stain out of carpet?

You can get the blue Windex stain out of a carpet by moistening the stain with water and then applying a good stain remover, such as OxiClean, to the affected area. Allow the stain remover to work for a few minutes, then blot away the excess with a clean cloth. Dampen a soft cloth with water and blot the carpet stain. Make a soapy solution in a bucket using warm water and dish soap. Using a sponge, gently blot the stain then rinse with a damp cloth. Press clean, dry cloths to the carpet and place something heavy over it. This will remove as much of the moisture in the carpet as possible. After several hours, vacuum the carpet.

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.


What happens when you leave a stain on the bacterial smear for too long?

If the bacterial cell are under stained then they will loose the stain of dye when wash with alocohol or may be simply by water which then cause a problem in identifying the cell type as e.g. in case of gram staining if the cell do not stain properly with methylene blue then they will loose the stain when washed and will counter stain with saffranin so the gram +ve will show the gram -ve colour.
