Identification of Unknown # 15 Abstract. One of the most fundamental differential staining techniques used in the study of bacteriology is gram staining. There are two main types of bacteria‚ gram negative and gram-positive. The purpose of this experiment was to perform a variety of tests to identify the bacteria contained in the unknown sample labeled number 15. The following are the tests that were used to identify the two different bacteria. The

Purpose: To determine the reaction order with respect to crystal violet dye. Procedure: Turn on a Spectronic 20 and warm it up for at least 15 minutes. Be sure the wavelength is set to 540nm. When the instrument has warmed up‚ use a clean small test tube from the drawer filled 2/3 with the first NaOH solution that is planned to use‚ as a blank set 0% and 100% transmittance. Take a %T reading every minute for at least 15 minutes so it may be convenient to wait until the room clock’s second

GRAM STAINING EXPERIMENT CONDUCTED ON 9/29/2013 Introduction: The Gram stain is a useful stain for identifying and classifying bacteria. The Gram stain is a differential stain that allows you to classify bacteria as either gram positive or gram negative. This gram stain technique was discovered by Hans Christina Gram in 1884. The gram stain procedure separates all bacteria into one of two groups - into gram-negative bacteria which do not stain purple and into gram-positive

between gram positive and gram negative bacteria cell walls. The gram negative bacteria cell wall is a thin peptidoglycan layer and an outer cell membrane with a lipopolysaccharide layer. The gram positive bacteria cell wall is a single thick peptidoglycan layer. This wall forms in a mesh like formation of three layers of alternating material. 2. From the procedure that you have carried out‚do you feel that the Gram positive stain is a simple procedure? No‚ because there are many procedure to do

The name comes from its inventor‚ Hans Christian Gram. Gram staining

The Gram staining method is named after the Danish bacteriologist who originally developed it in 1882‚ Hans Christian Gram. The Gram staining process is one of the most important staining techniques in microbiology. It is almost always the first test performed for the identification of bacteria. The primary stain of the Gram’s method is either crystal violet or methylene blue‚ each almost equally effective. The microorganisms that retain the crystal violet and iodine mixture appear purplish brown

Gram Staining Gram Staining is a method of differentiating bacterial species into two large groups (Gram-positive and Gram-negative). Gram Staining is a way to separate one large group of bacteria into two. Crystal violet is used to dye the cells‚ which is the primary stain. Those that retain the color are grouped as Gram-positive‚ and those that do not retain the color are grouped as Gram-negative. Many of the Gram-negative bacteria are pathogenic‚ making this process useful for detecting infections
