The blue stain is called crystal violet. It can color the bacteria a blue color only if the cell wall is very thick. We then call that bacteria a Gram+ bacteria. Knowing the Gram test (+ or-) and the shape of the bacteria, we have a quick idea of what it might be. Then what antibiotic could be given gives a head start on a treatment. This can take as little as a few minutes. Further tests are usually done later on. They can take 24 to 36 hours to get a result.
phenyle blue was a common dye used in biology when I was in college. You need to check to see what the particular item you are wanting to look at will react with first, though.
If you boil it, the water will boil and the dye will not, leaving you with dye.
It is an instrument used to determine the resistance to fading of a pigment or dye on natural or synthetic polymeric materials
The process that caused the movement of the dye is called diffusion. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, resulting in a uniform distribution of the dye molecules. This process is driven by the random thermal motion of molecules and is a fundamental concept in chemistry and biology.
Some people are allergic to the dye material, so it cannot be used. For these people, focused sound waves, called ultrasound, can be used to see where the stones are located.
One commonly used fluorescent dye in microscopy is fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). It is known for its high brightness and stability under illumination.
it helps in staining many slides at a time, as when we put many slides on a rack we can pour dye simoultaneously on all the slides and it will also help in reducing loss of extra dye or stain.
Yes, you can use food coloring to dye specimens for a microscope slide. However, food coloring is not as effective or long-lasting as specialized dyes used in laboratories. It may also interfere with the clarity of the specimen when viewed under a microscope.
A staining rack is a laboratory tool used to hold and organize slides during the staining process. It typically has grooves or slots where slides can be securely placed to prevent them from moving or touching each other while applying different staining solutions. Staining racks help in efficient and uniform staining of multiple slides at once.

Methyl green dye is a synthetic dye commonly used in biology and histology for staining cell nuclei. It binds to DNA and RNA molecules, allowing for visualization and study of cellular structures under a microscope. It is commonly used in combination with other stains to enhance contrast and identification of specific cell components.
The piece of glass used to observe specimens under a microscope is called a slide. Sometimes a thin piece of glass is used to cover the specimen. This is called a coverslip. Coverslips and slides can be made of glass, quartz or plastic, as long as these items are totally transparent and do not introduce any distortion. Sometimes the material may be tinted in order to add contrast, although this is usually done with dye.
The dye will colour the cell, making the cell easier to view through a microscope.
Fluoroscene Eosin
indigo was the plants name
Saffron is used to dye fabrics yellow. There are also some synthetic dyes which are used because saffron is very expensive.
