Basic dyes:
Crystal violet, Methylene blue, Malachite green, Safranin.
Acidic dyes:
Nigrosin, Congo red
When methylene blue is prepared as a basic stain, it will have a positive charge and selectively bind to negatively charged components of bacterial cells, such as nucleic acids, enhancing the staining of bacteria. On the other hand, if prepared as an acidic stain, it will have a negative charge and repel bacterial cells, resulting in poor staining of bacteria.
Not all stain removers are acidic. Some stain removers may contain acidic compounds, such as citric acid or acetic acid, to help break down stains, while others may rely on enzymes or surfactants to remove stains. It depends on the specific formulation of the stain remover.
Basic dyes are positively charged and are commonly used to stain acidic materials, such as nucleic acids, whereas acidic dyes are negatively charged and are used to stain basic materials, like proteins. The choice of dye depends on the target material's charge characteristics to achieve optimal staining results.
The acidic nature of vinegar and calamansi helps to break down and dissolve stains. The acidity helps to loosen the bond between the stain and the surface it is on, making it easier to lift and remove the stain.
acid
Which of the following is an example of chemical weathering?
The pH of a carbolfuchsin direct stain is typically acidic, around pH 2.5-3.0. This acidic pH helps the stain penetrate bacterial cell walls and bind to the cell structures, making them visible under a microscope.
Neutrophils stain both acidic and basic dyes
Acidic,basic and neutral stains
No, counterstain is not a negative stain. A counterstain is a secondary stain used in microscopy to color structures that were not stained by the primary stain, usually to provide contrast. Negative staining involves staining the background instead of the cells or structures of interest.

Eosinophils are leukocytes that stain with acidic dyes such as eosin. They are involved in the immune response to allergic reactions and parasitic infections.
It is basically use to stain leukocytes,maleria prasite and trypanosomas. leisman stain contain 1st methylene blue dye, a basic dye, which gives color to an acidic component.2nd eosin dye,an acidic dye ,which gives color to a basic component. These dye differentiat the different component of blood.
it is an example ostrawberry jam
Since there is no heat fixing or strong cemicals are used the bacteria are less distorted
Acidic Congo red is a negatively charged dye that can stain the background of a specimen, giving the appearance of a negative stain. This effect is due to the electrostatic repulsion between the negative charge of the dye and the negatively charged cellular components, causing the dye to be excluded from the cells and stain the background instead.
