It will hold the primary stain of violet.
What else can I help you with?
Is B subtilis a gram positive or gram negative bacterium?
gram positive Exactly. When doing a gram stain on B. subtilis, this bacterium resists decolorization (keping the first stain and NOT taking on the color of the secondary stain). Therefore, this bacterium is gram (+).
What is the purpose of crystal violet in the Gram's stain procedure?
Crystal violet is the primary stain in the Gram's stain procedure, used to color all bacteria cells purple. This helps differentiate between Gram-positive bacteria (which retain the violet color) and Gram-negative bacteria (which lose the violet color when decolorized with alcohol).
When tested with a gram stain gram positive are stained what color?
Gram-positive bacteria will retain the crystal violet stain and appear purple under a microscope after being stained. This is due to the thick peptidoglycan layer in their cell walls that retains the stain during the washing step of the Gram staining procedure.
Does yogurt stain gram positive or gram negative?
Yogurt contains mostly lactic acid bacteria, which are Gram-positive bacteria. This means they will stain purple under a Gram stain.
What color is gram-negative stain?
The color of a gram-negative stain is pink or red. This staining technique is used to differentiate bacteria based on their cell wall composition, with gram-negative bacteria retaining the pink/red color after staining.
Is HIV gram stain positive or negative?
The answer to whether HIV gram-stain positive or negative is that HIV gram-stain is negative. They retain the light red or pink color after the stain.
Is B subtilis a gram positive or gram negative bacterium?
gram positive Exactly. When doing a gram stain on B. subtilis, this bacterium resists decolorization (keping the first stain and NOT taking on the color of the secondary stain). Therefore, this bacterium is gram (+).
What color is gram negative stain and gram positive stain if you forget to apply iodine?
If iodine is not applied, both the gram-positive and gram-negative stains will appear to be gram-negative. The iodine acts as a mordant that helps to fix the crystal violet stain in the gram-positive bacteria, making them appear purple. Without iodine, the crystal violet stain can be easily washed out of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, resulting in a pink or red color.

If Gram positive cells are not decolonize what color would they appear after completing the Gram stain?
pink
What is the advantage of the gram stain over the simple stain?
gram staining differentiates between gram negative and gram positive bacteria by showing different colors. it shows blue or purple like color for gram positive bacteria and red color for gram negative bacteria. where as simple stain gives the same color to all the types of bacteria. hence it is difficult to differentiate between them.
Do gram-positive cells carry a net positive charge?
Gram-positive does not refer to a positive charge, but to the purple color of the stain. Gram-negative bacteria do not retain the purple dye and are instead red in color.
Did your results agree with the gram stain information in your text book?
Yes, the results agreed with the gram stain information in the textbook. The gram stain showed purple color for Gram-positive bacteria and pink color for Gram-negative bacteria, confirming their respective characteristics.
What color will gram stain positive turn into?
If using a gram stain, they will turn Crystal Violet.
Does yogurt stain gram positive or gram negative?
Yogurt contains mostly lactic acid bacteria, which are Gram-positive bacteria. This means they will stain purple under a Gram stain.
Does candida have a positive or negative gram stain?
Gram positive
