Can a virus be gram stained?
No, viruses cannot be gram stained because they are too small to be visualized under a light microscope, which is required for performing gram staining. Gram staining is a technique used to classify bacteria based on their cell wall composition and structure.
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.

What is the difference in color between gram positive and gram negative bacteria?
Gram positive bacteria appear purple or blue when stained with the Gram stain, while gram negative bacteria appear pink or red. This color difference is due to the thickness of the cell wall and the presence of an outer membrane in gram negative bacteria.
What does the decolorizer do in the process of gram staining?
The decolorizer in the process of gram staining removes the purple stain from bacteria that do not retain it, allowing them to be stained with a contrasting color. This step helps differentiate between gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria based on their cell wall composition.

Because it is a Gram-negative bacterium and can be stained with Gram-negative stain.
Where was neptunium found?
Neptunium is an artificial chemical element. Neptunium can be found in the nature only in ultratraces resulting from nuclear weapons experiments, radioactive wastes from nuclear reactors or from other experiments. Neptunium is found also in extremely low concentrations in uranium ores.
When tested with a gram stain gram positive are stained what color?
