Very nicely done and helpful. I do wish the video showed the rinses being done over a staining tray and properly disposed of instead of being washed down a sink!!
Works very great!

@@HardyDx but if we pour decoloriser more then g postive Bacteria will lose color right ?? So we have to not pour more decoloriser until all the stain comes out ??
Wonderful explanation! Thank you

I’ve done a few gram stains in the past and the technique is a little tricky just following a procedure. The video helps to show exactly how it should happen.

Can absolute alcohol be used to fix the slide?
makasi bang
I assume the videos that used heat to fix the bacteria are representing the old method
Sir I am Bangladeshi. I have test sputum for gram stain... Pus cells... ( ++).. Gram positive cocci... Plenty..l want to know about this report...
At @1:25 you've showed that peptidoglycan layer is stained itself. It's not true. It's the cytoplasm that takes up the gram stain.
Thanks for practical

Sorry, I couldn't watch all the video because of the music, but otherwise what I did see was informative. That kind of cheesy not-even techno-kinda royalty free noise is just too pervasive for some people to focus on what they actually want to hear.
Quit yapping.
not a very good technique by the fellow and the method/procedure used its bad. usually you dont attack directly the sample with stain or water or whatever you pour on it. heat its not bad at all, just not direclty for more than 5 sec, like in flames works good enough... air dry could contaminate your sample and/or could have alive bacteria (wich isnt bad at all either but it depends on what you want, generaly dont want alive bacteria so you dont contaminate more tools in your lab).
