Staining of BacteriaStaining of Bacteria
• Bacteria cells are almost Bacteria cells are almost colorlesscolorless, and for this reason , and for this reason a a staining techniquestaining technique is often applied is often applied to the cells to color them so that to the cells to color them so that their shape and size can be easily their shape and size can be easily determined under the microscope. determined under the microscope.

(The following procedure is used for all of our (The following procedure is used for all of our staining)staining)
1. Flame (sterilize) 1. Flame (sterilize) your inoculating your inoculating loop/needle before loop/needle before andand after use. Heat after use. Heat from base to tip. Be from base to tip. Be sure to get the sure to get the entire wire red hot.entire wire red hot.
Make sure that you
are collecting your hair
2. Prepare the smear
a. With solid culture (agar colony), place a small
drop of distilled water on a clean slide. Drag the sterile inoculating needle tip through the edge of an isolated colony. Gently spread the mixture into a circle the size of a quarter.
b. With liquid culture(A loop of liquid culture can be
placed directly on the slide and spread out.)

.
3. Let the smear air dry completely. Do not apply heat while drying because this can lyse the cells

• No heat fixation or strong chemicals No heat fixation or strong chemicals are used, so the bacteria less are used, so the bacteria less distorted than in other staining distorted than in other staining procedure.procedure.

“One of the most common mistakes is to decolorize a smear for too long a time period. Even Gram-positive cells can lose the crystal violet-iodine complex during prolonged decolorization.

Gram StainGram Stain• It is the most It is the most
important important differential stain differential stain used in bacteriology used in bacteriology because it classified because it classified bacteria into two bacteria into two major groups:major groups:
a)a) Gram Gram positive:positive:
Appears violet after Gram’s stain
b)b) Gram Gram negative:negative:
Appears red after Gram’s stain

Gram-positive bacteria• Have a thick peptidoglycan layer surrounds the
cell. • The stain gets trapped into this layer and the
bacteria turned purple.• Retain the color of the primary stain (crystal
violet) after decolorization with alcohol
Gram-negative bacteria • have a thin peptidoglycan layer that does not
retain crystal violet stain.• Instead, it has a thick lipid layer which dissolved
easily upon decoulorization with Acetone-Alcohol.
• Therefore, cells will be counterstained with safranin and turned red.
