techniques. Here they are; Simple staining: Only one type of dye used for simple staining and it stains all cells the same color. Creating contrast between cell and background to observe cell morphology is aimed. Differential staining: A differential stain uses more than one dye and stains different kinds of organism with different colors. Positive staining: If cell itself is stained it is called positive staining. It sticks with specimen and gives its color. Negative staining: If background is stained

Lab Practical One Report Unknown Bacteria Staining Gram Acid Fast Spore The first practical for microbiology was staining of an unknown bacteria. Professor Goode provided an unlabeled bacteria in which each individual were to conduct gram‚ acid fast‚ and spore staining tests from memory. When the gram staining test was conducted a positive results was obtained. When views on oil bacteria appeared purple and rod-like. I noted this result and looked at the lab key to see what the results narrowed

Introduction Gram staining was developed by Christian Gram in the 1800’s‚ a Danish bacteriologist. (Smith and Hussey‚ 2005) It was the first differential staining technique and most common used in microbiology. Furthermore‚ bacteria are transparent and cannot be seen through the microscope. For that reason‚ Gram staining is an important tool for distinguishing between two main types of bacteria Gram-positive and Gram-negative. The Gram stain differentiates the Gram positive and gram-negative on

Michele Hindmarsh mhindma@my.wgu.edu Student ID# 000383032 MLT1 – Experiment 5; Task 6 Differential Staining Heidi Atkinson‚ MS Lab Experiment #5-Differential Staining Through the process of differential staining‚ there are distinct differences between the cell walls of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In the case of gram-positive bacteria‚ the cell wall is comprised of 60-90% peptidoglycan and is very thick. There are numerous layers of teichoic acid bound with peptidoglycan

Accordingto the chemical make up of bacterial cell wall‚ a staining procedure‚ Gram stain‚ helps usclassify bacteria into two subgroups‚ The cell wall can stain either positive or negative‚depending on its chemistry. If the bacteria stains positive it will retain a purple/blue color. If the bacteria stains negative

Bacteria Classification By Gram Staining THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY IN CAIRO BIOLOGY DEPARTMENT SCIENCE 453 : BIOLOGY FOR ENGINEERS REPORT No.1 Presented By : Karim A. Zaklama 92-1509 Sci. 453-01 24/2/96 Objective: To test a sample of laboratory prepared bacteria and categorise it according to Christian’s gram positive and gram negative classes and also by viewing it under a high powered microscope and oil immersions; classify its shape and note any special characteristics.

Abstract This experiment was carried out to perform staining methods on microbes‚ explain the mechanisms of staining‚ namely‚ simple staining‚ and learn how to use the microscope. The experiment setting was kept as sterile as possible when conducting the experiment. The microbes under the microscope were drawn out and labelled. In conclusion‚ different staining techniques are used to determine the presence of certain exterior structures of the bacteria like the cell envelope or just to identify

Unknown reports in microbiology are written in scientific format. Scientific writing is written differently from other types of writing. The results of the exercise or experiment are what are being showcased‚ not the writing. The purpose of scientific writing is not to entertain‚ but to inform. The writing should be simple and easy to understand. There is a specific style that must be followed when writing scientific reports. Scientific writing is typically written in the passive voice. The
